Section II Establishing a CFF
Use of CFFs should be requested and approved prior to deployment
in accordance with AR 165-1, paragraph 14-9. Normally, the CTOF
at the unit's projection platform serves as the sponsoring fund to
anchor field operations; an individual mobilization augmentee
(IMA)-region CTOF may sponsor the deploying unit's CFF. A CFF
may also be established after deployment by contacting the incoming
unit's installation chaplain. Use the following steps to establish a
CFF:
1. Unit commanders make request by memo to sponsoring
installation/IMA-region CTOF.
2. Installation or IMA-region CTOF approves CFF request.
