I was wondering, is there a Marine MOS equivalent to a Navy RP or Religious Program Specialist?
-Thanks in advance.

I have seen a few Marine Chaplain Assistants but I know nothing about them or their job.
There is no Marine equililant to the RP program.

Found this, but I am not sure what to make of it.
(b) Chaplain Assistant (CA). Per reference (i), Marines will
continue to be assigned to the CRP staff as CAs when required RP manning
is not available and the unit Table of Organization (T/O) supports the
requirement. When feasible, Marine CAs having an MOS 0151, primary or
secondary, will be provided by the unit of which the chaplain is a member.

It is old (1997) but as I said do see Marine CAs here at Pendleton. Seems they are drawing clerks to supplement the RPs, and I have no clue how this is done. Hope this helps you, ma'am.
