The purpose of this study is to identify the legal basis for a military social workers to work
in the military settings and to find ways to institutionalization. In the specially organized military
for the purpose of national defense forces, supporting the welfare of the soldiers who get duty
for their country and fundamental rights will be guaranteed. In order to achieve these objectives,
I examine the rationale to be provided military social welfare, look for a legal basis for the
subject, budget and object as a component of the military social welfare. Although at presently
military social worker did not stipulate institutionally, I examined through the analysis of the
historical efforts in meantime. And based on this, present an institutional method of the military
social welfare. As a result, further study has suggested the desirability that military social workers
provide welfare services to military soldiers, their families and military-related persons through
a network with community welfare resources.
