2PFDUs for aircrew, I believe the flag patch being optional on the bag with optional HHQ patch instead a la ACC. I believe those two are the only ones I know for sure. Guess we'll see when it makes its way to our reddit front page the nanosecond it's published.

Training in the real support world with a curriculum built around disaster assessment and disaster relief...POD..IS26 mere awareness needs exercising...just because we have it on our 1lone o one card does not mean CAP Nation-wide is proficient. Since we take FEMA courses and whatnot CAP needs a taskbook that supports All Hazard All Risk....theres plenty of disasters that CAP can support...its not just comms and aerial photography. Its going to take a culture change....there are more volunteers from other organizations serving in incidents...probably a culture change for the AF also....since they hold some of the mission assignment cards....

As a SMWOG, a bank square is what I wear on my winter coat and on my plate carrier/gear vest when in the field.

Seeing that the ES task guides are now a hair under 20 years old, I'm curious to see what sort of changes you would make to the "current" (not really) guides and what new ES qualifications you would want to see. I know 60-3 makes references to some qualifications that don't exist (like Highbird Radio Operator) but it does pose an interesting question on what sort of training and qualifications would be useful in today's CAP.

"I would like the digitals."

"I want the green boots."

"The digitals."

Gosh I wish we still had that floating around.

(ya welcome)

Kidding, kinda. Glad to see that made it through the gauntlet of things they slashed from our draft.
