What was the outcome of the trailer in ILWG?  If the other unit didn't have the ability to get it, I have a home for it in Missouri Wing.

I'm still actively working on it and am in contact with ILWG staff.

Hi Simon,
...
If a member wishes to drive their POV with a trailer behind, they may do that as long as there are no other CAP members in the vehicle, and that neither the vehicle nor the  trailer are counted as official parts of a CAP activity, such as being signed into a mission for coverages and expenses.

Just curious...

By what authority does a Wing Commander (or for that matter Squadron, Group Region or National Commander) dictate what a members may or may not do with their own privately owned vehicles and property when they are specifically not "counted as official parts of a CAP activity"?

As written, this would prohibit a CAP member whose wife is also a member from hooking up a trailer and heading to the campground.

I'm guessing it falls under the same authority as "any group of CAP members doing an activity not part of CAP is considered a CAP activity." There are some squadrons and wings that view any gathering of members, in or out of uniform, doing anything together as a CAP activity. I don't know either.

The same rules that say to/from is not the corporation's responsibility, except that it is, only when it's not, it is.
