Brazilian Civil Air Patrol

[EMT-83]

Odd, when I Googled "Brazilian" these guys didn't appear. 

[BillB]

Try Brazilian Civil Air Patrol, and they come up including a UTube video.

In general, it probably would be a good idea for CAP to assist other countries in developing CAP-like organizations.  CG Aux does a fair bit of that. 

[flyboy53]

well their story from a couple years ago was a former CAP member started it. Either way, there's no international group of CAPs and they don't get to use CAP's seal, website design, aircraft, and members - even if there were some association.

So why aren't the legal eagles at NHQ pursing copyright infringment on the insignia like they went after all the uniform companies and insignia manufacturers? Does NHQ get a cut from every badge or insignia ordered by the Brazil folks?

Honestly, it's great that such a similar organization can flourish there, but.....

[JC004]

International conventions or not, international is still a big hurdle.  I don't know what the solution is.  If it was a legit organization, CAP NHQ could just call (on Skype, please.  I'm paying for this.), yell at them loudly in their own language with scary legal words, and demand the photos be removed, etc.  But if it was a legit organization, they wouldn't be using photos of OUR members for their own.

If Brazil is in IACE I WANA GO! ESCORT DUTY! Guys they can use our Logo and Website, I dont have a problem with it at all. I think National HQ could charge a Franchise Fee, but no, that would be making money!

LOL.. they got the one cadet photo from 39-1, too.. you know, they look so incredibly badly 'shopped it's not even funny. Surely people in that actual organization can't be thrilled with that hack look.

Or.. maybe it's all just a web game, and doesn't really exist.

In any case, OTOH, even they must hate TTT. Because they have not swiped it.

Actually, not very cool.  They decided to use my wife...

Which one is she?

This is the funniest thing I've seen in a long time.  I bet the whole org is those just those two dudes in the middle.  Even the patch on the guy on the right looks like a sticker!

Hubba hubba!

If those are cadets, many of us are officially now doomed to hell.....See ya there!

Which one is she?

Left and Right Flanks.  It looks like they grabbed her picture from an Air Force Times article that was written about her circa 2003.



The woman second from the left is Charlene Shidisky (first photo), who passed away on April 24, 2010.  She was a member of the Langley Composite Squadron (MER-VA-025) when that photo was taken.  She and several of the squadron members are in the 39-1.

I do not know if I am a specialist in these diplomatic subjects, but I am from now on.  I think that there has been some misinformation, and it grieves me that it has been 2 years. I will follow from here, and in defense of our  Civil Air Patrol!

People in Brazil actually fall for that photoshopped garbage?
