About this file

Written by GovTribe AI · Apr 29, 2026

DD Form 2088 is a Statement of Ecclesiastical Endorsement template used by the Department of Defense to verify the professional and ecclesiastical qualifications of Religious Ministry Professionals seeking initial appointment or career status changes as military chaplains. The form is controlled by the Office of the Under Secretary of Defense for Personnel and Readiness and carries an estimated public reporting burden of 45 minutes per response.

The form requires completion by an authorized ecclesiastical endorsing agent representing a qualified religious organization with IRC 501(c)(3) exempt status. Section 1 captures information about the endorsing agent, including their credentials, authorization date, and contact details. Section 2 collects prospect information such as name, Social Security number (last four digits), date of birth, years of professional ministry experience, prior military service, ordination credentials and date, and the type of appointment sought (Chaplain Candidate, Reserve, National Guard, Active Duty, or withdrawal of endorsement). Section 3 directs the completed form to the appropriate military branch Chief of Chaplains (Army, Navy, or Air Force). Section 4 requires organizational details from the religious organization granting the endorsement, including its name, IRC exempt status date, Employer Identification Number, and contact information. The form certifies that the prospect meets standards outlined in DoDI 1304.28 and becomes part of the chaplain's military personnel record. Completed forms must be returned to the Chief of Chaplains, not to the address listed in the OMB section. The information is protected under the Privacy Act of 1974 and contains controlled unclassified information.
