Title: CAP Wings Actively Helping Fight Coronavirus
Post by: zippy on March 25, 2020, 03:54:55 AM
Below are some examples of how CAP is helping in the crisis. As the Kansas and Maryland Wings prove, there is a need for transport and aerial photography. I bet there are many other ways CAP can help.

Kansas Wing Assisting State with Lab Specimen Transport
Quote from: undefinedMarch 20, the wing has supported the state's response to COVID-19 by transporting specimens from rural and remote areas to KDEM's laboratory in Topeka. These transports are important because reaching the lab with specimens in time is often a race against the clock.

There are over a dozen missions in WIMRS with COVID coding. Staffing, flights, comm missions and more. The naysayers were wrong, again.

We have work to do, let's get it done!

There's nothing that says you as an individual cannot go volunteer your time. Stop with the "we" bit and your attempt at shaming us into this.

The intent seems pretty clear not to shame anyone into joining a mission of national importance. The intent seems pretty clear to be that the department of No that has infected captalk was quite clearly wrong in its theory that CAP would have no role to play in this declared presidential disaster affecting all states, most territories, and several tribes.

As for me and my house ....

We have about 3 weeks or more of food.  We're staying home.

Someone has to pick up the pieces when this is all over with.

Well, since it looks like we can't play nicely again, we shall bid this a fond adieu.
