71M10 Chapel Activities Spec

The 71M10 Chapel Activities Specialist was a U.S. Army Military Occupational Specialty (MOS) established to support religious and spiritual programs within military units. Introduced during the Vietnam War era, this role assisted chaplains in planning and coordinating religious services, managing chapel supplies, and providing logistical and administrative support for unit ministry activities. The 71M10 Specialists ensured soldiers had access to religious materials and facilitated morale-boosting events, playing a vital role in spiritual resilience. In the late 1990s, the MOS was re-designated as 56M Religious Affairs Specialist, reflecting the evolving nature of religious support in the modern Army.
