And finally......even with federal law it would take someone who cares to prosecute.

I bet a lot of people out there using USAF insignia on coffee mugs and other things with out permission.

You mean like this?

Trademarks may be considered abandoned through non-use, though.

Which is fine...if you're not using it, no need to protect it.

I just don't see a need for a special public law to protect CAP's marks, when the Lanham Act does exactly the same thing already.

Now, for the USAF, that's a different matter.  As a government entity, they generally don't receive intellectual property rights in their marks and such.  CAP's not a government entity however.
