Pleasantly surprised.  :clap: I was expecting more of the same. I've already shared this vid on FB.

Bill Meskill did an outstanding job in telling what the Massachusetts Wing did in responding to "9/11". :clap:  He and his staff have worked very hard to reestablish contacts within the state government/national guard, and some local federal agencies to potentially get the wing more air and ground ES support type missions. :clap:  As you see also he's in the corporate grey & white uniform (you see it's not what we wear BUT what we do that is all important to CAP :angel:).   BTW he's also a retired military officer.

I'm glad that we got this addressed.  I kept thinking to myself "wow - how did he accomplish his mission wearing that?  Was he wearing an AF style uniform on 9/11?  Could I be like him if I wear a grey uniform?  Would I be a better officer if I wore a grey uniform?"

It's clearly the central issue here and clearly critical to address how he was able to lead things AND give an interview later wearing a grey uniform.  This makes a strong case for immediately doing away with all Air Force style uniforms.
