RELIGIOUS PROGRAM
On November 28, 1775, the second article
of Navy Regulations was adopted. In
its statement, it included that "the
Commanders of the ships of the thirteen
United Colonies are to take care that
divine services be performed twice a day
on board and a sermon preached on
Sundays, unless bad weather or other
extraordinary accidents prevent."
'Although chaplains were not specifically
mentioned in this article, one can imply
that Congress intended that an ordained
clergyman be part of ship's company.
Later documents support that conclusion.'
derived from a summary of Lt. Margaret G.
Kibben, CHC, USNR, on US Navy Chaplain
Corps web site
According to nautical tradition, a prayer
is spoken aboard a naval vessel just
prior to taps, relayed over the ship's
intercom by the Chaplain. At our
base, in line with our mission of
training USCG shipmates, the tradition is
continued by the religious petty officers
in seaman recruit company squad bays.

Officers Instructions Sheet
"As the smallest of the nations'
Armed Forces, the Coast Guard has no
Chaplains of its own and so they are
provided by the US Navy Chaplain Corps."
