US Army Training Circular, TC 1-05, Religious Support Handbook for the Unit Ministry Team, 10 May 2005, military manuals

Preface
The Unit Ministry Team (UMT) handbook provides an unclassified
staff reference book for chaplains and chaplain assistants. It
emphasizes essential activities during combat operations at division
and lower echelons.

This handbook is considered a “living document”—that is, it will
receive periodic formal review by the proponent, but it also should be
reviewed and revised by the user to meet specific needs. Chaplains
and chaplain assistants should use this handbook as a guide, being
mindful that they must remain knowledgeable of policies and
procedures established by regulations, standing operating procedures
(SOP), and other local directives.
