.. In my wing, transfers from out of state require Wing CC approval.
My squadron does not maintain paper records...
-Other than you're the Commander and "it's my way or the highway", by what justification do you hold back a Cadet's promotion by almost half of the norm?
-OP, I suspect that if this Wing Commander micro-manages Cadet transfers to this level, there are WAY more issues in the Wing than we can discuss here.
-Do you upload every CAPF 60-90, SDAs, and rubric forms too?

Quote from: RiverAux on April 05, 2024, 12:01:14 PMDoes anyone complain that they're horning in on the Red Cross if they set up a shelter or hand out water bottles?
Quote from: RiverAux on April 05, 2024, 12:01:14 PMThese days there is a much reduced need for the sort of airborne capabilities that we have, but that isn't a dealbreaker -- the federal legislation organizing CAP says that we can respond to any sort of emergency and doesn't put any limit on what types of activities we can do while responding.
That being said, CAP has been failing for decades to actually come up with a vision for how we respond to natural disasters that addresses anything other than airborne photography. Now, I don't see anything wrong with us assisting other agencies in something that they specialize in. They're probably always going to need more manpower. Really, is that any different than a lot of what the National Guard does during disasters? Does anyone complain that they're horning in on the Red Cross if they set up a shelter or hand out water bottles?

I guess minus taking off the blouse when it's hot but at that point we should fly in ABUs/BBDU? Where as that option doesn't exist for those in MiLAV who have to wear the nomex and the 2 piece is great for the crew dogs.
It was mainly one of those we were trying to future-proof, and allow AF/Army aircrews who had them issued be able to wear them to CAP as well as anyone who wanted to get them. It's a very different fabric from the standard OCPs, much more comfortable for general usage, for meetings and staff jobs, etc. I was hoping to not have to blouse my boots, but I guess I'll just stick with the green nomies.
It's a different fabric because they're Nomex.
