  RELIGIOUS SUPPORT IN BRIGADES
  3-16. Serving in a BCT or functional brigade, the brigade UMT establishes a vision for RS within the brigade
  AO through its integration in the operations process. Through its professional military religious advisor
  capability, the UMT visualizes the end state of RS for the brigade and the required effort and resources
  necessary to execute their planned missions. The operations process enables brigade UMTs to understand the
  brigade commander’s intent for RS within the brigade AO, synchronize subordinate RS tasks, and coordinate
  for the required support necessary to achieve mission success.
  3-17. Generally, a brigade has two or more battalions under its operational control. Each battalion has a
  UMT, and the brigade UMT supervises these subordinate UMTs. The brigade UMT plans, coordinates,
  assesses, and supervises the execution of RS by subordinate UMTs throughout its AO. A brigade can take on
  numerous attachments to conduct operations. This gives the organic unit a far different task organization and
  capability than what it carried while training at home station. A brigade can deploy and operate with its
  organic units. Other brigades only deploy subordinate units to support other operations. In each case, a
  brigade UMT plays a critical role in shaping and supporting the RS functions of subordinate UMTs.
  3-18. Brigade UMTs closely monitor rapidly changing OEs anticipating support requirements,
  communicating priorities by means of the commander’s operations process, coordinating area coverage
  plans, and requesting additional support from higher in order to facilitate comprehensive RS across the
  ROMO.
  3-19. Supervision and training are critical for the success of the brigade religious-support mission. The
  brigade UMT must see supervision and training as their part of comprehensive RS within the brigade.
  Supervision and training are a function of both the religious leader and professional military religious advisor
  capability. For the brigade UMT, the transition from serving as a battalion UMT to a brigade-level UMT is
  not simply a movement in location, it requires a transition in focus. A chaplain and religious affairs specialist
  at the brigade level shift their main effort away from the direct delivery role of RS. Instead, the main effort
  is focused on supervising, synchronizing, and resourcing subordinate UMTs as they provide RS to the
  battalions operating within the larger brigade AO. Through effective leadership, supervision, training, and
  mentoring, the brigade UMT can impact the effectiveness of battalion level RS tasks. The brigade UMT has
  the responsibility to ensure subordinate UMTs are planning, preparing, executing, and assessing the delivery
  of RS to Soldiers and meeting the commander’s intent. The religious leader capability guides the brigade
  UMT in their role to the brigade headquarters staff. The brigade UMT monitors the religious and emotional
  health of subordinate UMTs as they provide RS to Soldiers in close combat and coordinates external RS as
  needed for subordinate chaplains and religious affairs specialists.
  RELIGIOUS SUPPORT ENABLERS
  3-20. Religious support enablers consist of chaplain detachments. These detachments have mission specific
  organization. Each has its own support and equipment.
  CHAPLAIN DETACHMENTS
  3-21. Chaplain detachments (CDs) provide the Army Chaplain Corps a force tailoring capability to respond
  to expeditionary requirements usually identified through the global force management process. The
  detachments represent a supplemental capability for conducting RS functions and for providing RS across
  the ROMO. The CDs are an augmentation capability, not a replacement for organic RS or force structure. A
  CD is composed of mobilized Reserve Component chaplains and religious affairs specialists. When
  mobilized, these detachments increase the commander’s ability to meet the religious needs of Service
  personnel.
