Welcome...
We are the
official auxiliary
of the United States
Air Force and are a
multifunctional
volunteer
organization that
serves America with
a spirit of
dedication and
commitment. Each
year Civil Air
Patrol provides more
than 85% of inland
search and rescue
support as tasked by
the Air Force Rescue
Coordination Center
at Langley AFB, VA.
In addition, CAP
volunteers
repeatedly respond
to calls from the
Federal Emergency
Management Agency
(FEMA) and the
American Red Cross
when disaster
strikes in the form
floods, hurricanes,
forest fires or
other disasters,
natural and man
made.
Equally important
is the work we do
with the youth of
America. Civil Air
Patrol Cadet
Programs provides
young men and women,
ages 12-20, with a
safe and motivating
environment in which
to grow and explore
opportunities in the
military and
aviation industries.
CAP presents an
alternative life
style to drugs and
teenage violence,
thus giving
thousands of young
people the
opportunity to
embrace the
leadership roles of
the 21st century
with confidence and
determination. |
