A chaplain has rank without command.

(Aug. 10, 1956, ch. 1041, 70A Stat. 206, § 3581; renumbered § 7231, Pub. L. 115–232, div. A, title VIII, § 808(b)(7), Aug. 13, 2018, 132 Stat. 1838.)

The words “and shall be on the same footing with other officers of the Army, as to tenure of office, retirement, and pensions” are omitted as obsolete, since there is no distinction between the status of a chaplain as an officer and the status of other officers of the Army.
