Thought you might find this interesting. This is in the National collection. I scanned a bunch of them last year at the national historians home in NY.
Wow......."subversive files".......at that time meant, homosexuals, communists, socialists, some republicans, anyone anti-war.....all except cross-dressers right?
Our current background checks for CAP encompass more checking on information than they did in the 1940's.
BTW.....does the National Historian keep all the CAP documents of importance at his residence?
Its interesting that CAP members who were discovered to be subversive were referred to the CAA, the ancestor of the FAA, probably for action against their airman's certificate.
No the records are usually kept in secure storage but he had them for me to look at.
