TITLE, APPLICABLE FORMS, AND

APPLICABLE OMB NUMBER: Appointment

of Chaplains for the Military Services

(previously entitled Certificate of

Ecclesiastical Endorsement, Nomination

of Chaplains for the Three Military

Departments (Army, Navy, Air Force));

DD Form 2088 and DD Form x291

(Draft); OMB Control Number 0704–

0190.

SUMMARY: This information collection is

used by the Department of Defense to

access chaplains into the Military

Services. The collection, which is used

by all the Military Services, gathers the

necessary data for determining

eligibility for religious organizations

seeking to endorse chaplains and for

clergy persons seeking endorsement as

military chaplains.

NEEDS AND USES: Title 10 United States

Code 532, 591 and DoD Directive

1304.19, requires the Department to

ensure that reglious organizations

seeking to endorse chaplains are eligible

and that applicants qualified for the

military chaplain services are endorsed

by those religious organizations. Two

forms are associated with this program

to collect the necessary information.

The DD Form x291 (Draft),

‘‘Ecclesiastical Endorsing Organization

Verification/Reverification

Information,’’ requests basic

demographic information about the

religious denominations seeking to

supply chaplains. It requests the name

of an official authorized to represent the

organization to the Military Services,

and it requires the organization to

certify that it is authorized by its

membership to act as the sole agency for

the purpose of certifying and endorsing

clergy to serve as military chaplains.

The DD Form 2088, ‘‘Ecclesiastical

Endorsing Agent Certification,’’ is used

by religious denominations to certify

that a member of their clergy is

professionally qualified to become a

chaplain. It requests information about

name, address, professional experience,

and previous military experience to be

used in determining grade, date of rank,

and eligibility for promotion for

appointees to the chaplain services.

Affected Public: Not-for-profit

institutions.

Annual Burden Hours (Including

Record keeping): 851 hours.

Number of Respondents: 818.

Responses per Respondent: 1.

TITLE AND APPLICABLE OMB NUMBER:

Youth Attitude Tracking Study (YATS)

(previously entitled Communications

and Enlistment Decisions/Youth

Attitude Tracking Study III (CEDS/

YATS III), OMB Control Number 0704–

0069.

SUMMARY: Approximately 10,000 young

men and women are interviewed via

telephone each Fall to ascertain

attitudes and opinions affecting military

recruiting. Occasionally, additional

interviews of 3,000 youth are conducted

in the Spring or Summer (but not both

in the same year), where information

requirements preclude waiting for the

normally scheduled Fall interviews.

Information includes propensity for

military service; reasons for serving in

the military, or for not serving;

awareness of recruiting advertising and

other recruiting efforts; perceptions of

the military and the sources of those

perceptions; and the impact of domestic

and international events on enlistment

propensity. As enlistment propensity

has fallen dramatically since the end of

the Cold War, it enables critical

evaluation of alternative explanations of

declining propensity. It provides

information required by Congress on

year-to-year changes in enlistment

propensity, and reasons for those

changes.

NEEDS AND USES: The information

provided annually to DoD and the

Recruiting Services are required to

ascertain changes in youth attitudes that

affect recruiting budgets, and to support

analysis of recruiting incentives and

diagnoses of recruiting difficulties.

YATS provides an independent measure

of youth awareness of DoD and Service

recruiting advertising, and an efficient

measure of potential incentives, such as

increased educational benefits. The

information is used to optimize

allocation of resources and evaluate the

effect of policy changes. It is used in

preparing testimony for Congress on the

state of recruiting.

Affected Public: Individuals or

households.

Annual Burden Hours (Including

Recordkeeping): 5,618 hours.

Number of Respondents: 13,050.

Responses per Respondent: 1.

Average Burden per Response: .4305

hours.

Frequency: One time.

To request more information on this

proposed information collection or to

obtain a copy of the proposal and

associated collection instruments,

please write to the above address or call

Defense (Personnel and Readiness)

Reports Clearance Officer at (703) 614–
