CAP Pong!

CAP Cadet 1983-88, CAP Senior Member 1994-95, USAF/USAF Reserve Officer 1993-Present.

What I learned during the Cadet program served me well both in AFROTC and in my AF career.

I'm another former CAP crewdog, Squadron Communications Officer, Emergency Services Officer and Deputy Sqdn. Commander in an Indiana sqdn, 1992- 95. It's for reasons like this that I left, our Chaplain and PAO quit, along with most of our squadron cadets, and that our squadron, in existance since 1942, disbanded.

Pigheadedness and fawning brownnosing among our Wing weenies was expected and tolerated. When it became a matter of compromising cadets' safety [and one particularly notorious incident of an attempted takeoff of an aircraft during a CAP mission with the towbar still attached to the front landing gear] it became time to bail.

Accordingly, I'm not a bit surprised. And I hope somebody passes the address of this post and responses on to Col. Glasgow.
