00:02.250 --> 00:06.380
- [David] My RPS actually
know more about Catholic mass

00:06.380 --> 00:09.550
than I probably do and same
with Jewish Orthodox services,

00:09.550 --> 00:11.940
because they're responsible to be able

00:11.940 --> 00:13.390
to set up all those services.

00:14.536 --> 00:17.953
(orchestral music plays)

00:20.290 --> 00:24.940
So, chaplains have had a
different sailors assigned to them

00:24.940 --> 00:27.990
a Yeoman for the Marine
Corps childless assistants

00:27.990 --> 00:29.690
that were Marines we've had.

00:29.690 --> 00:32.090
People assigned to us since the beginning,

00:32.090 --> 00:35.600
since the 18 hundreds to help
us execute those programs.

00:35.600 --> 00:38.810
So for religious support for instance,

00:38.810 --> 00:42.330
they helped provide the
support and the rigging

00:42.330 --> 00:43.960
and de-rigging of different services.

00:43.960 --> 00:46.770
So as the Chaplain Corps
has gotten more diverse

00:46.770 --> 00:49.610
and has brightened chaplains
at different fades,

00:49.610 --> 00:52.610
those a Yeoman that used to
support the chaplains need

00:52.610 --> 00:54.820
to be more and more familiar with more

00:54.820 --> 00:56.713
and more different types of religions.

00:59.310 --> 01:01.020
- [Austin] Our first joint
I knew I wanted to help

01:01.020 --> 01:02.010
on a different aspect.

01:02.010 --> 01:04.000
First thing I thought though was,

01:04.000 --> 01:08.230
I'm not that religious come
to find out to be an RP.

01:08.230 --> 01:10.130
You don't have to be religious at all.

01:11.900 --> 01:13.140
So RPS is the board of the ship.

01:13.140 --> 01:15.770
We do a lot of different programs.

01:15.770 --> 01:17.930
The biggest thing we
do is support all faith

01:17.930 --> 01:21.570
and relate to services from
rigging to de-rigging services,

01:21.570 --> 01:23.950
to be in the support
system of everybody's need.

01:23.950 --> 01:25.300
When it comes to spiritual,

01:26.500 --> 01:28.290
we support a lot of command functions,

01:28.290 --> 01:31.050
a lot of command programs
such as calm rails,

01:31.050 --> 01:35.660
community relations,
about face, living works.

01:35.660 --> 01:38.720
So we reached out to a lot of sailors

01:38.720 --> 01:40.823
to support there's spiritual need.

01:43.530 --> 01:46.360
Prior to joining I was a EMT.

01:46.360 --> 01:48.610
So I worked with doing
the medical services

01:48.610 --> 01:50.770
for just about 16 years.

01:50.770 --> 01:51.676
So when I was going to join ahead

01:51.676 --> 01:54.000
first consider becoming a corpsman,

01:54.000 --> 01:56.200
just cause that up is
what I've always done,

01:57.670 --> 01:59.080
but then COSA got to it.

01:59.080 --> 02:00.750
I knew I always wanted to
continue helping people,

02:00.750 --> 02:02.200
and I wanted to do it
on a different aspect

02:02.200 --> 02:03.310
for a little while.

02:03.310 --> 02:04.830
I knew by joining as an RP,

02:04.830 --> 02:08.060
I could reach sailors and other personnel

02:08.060 --> 02:09.400
on a different ground

02:09.400 --> 02:12.350
instead of just always
treating them physically,

02:12.350 --> 02:15.580
but medications and stuff
I can always be there.

02:15.580 --> 02:18.780
And part of that support
system for the spiritual needs

02:18.780 --> 02:21.720
social needs and just making them realize

02:21.720 --> 02:25.280
that they're not alone and that
we're always there for them.

02:25.280 --> 02:27.906
Then that which part
of the spectrum world.

02:27.906 --> 02:31.656
(orchestral music continues)

02:35.838 --> 02:39.040
- Definitely loved my RPS and
could not do nearly as much as

02:39.040 --> 02:42.413
what we do here on this ship
without them and their support.
