Huh?

It's a program CAP actually has, but it's not too popular in my area.
It's AL.Com. They don't proofread or fact check much.
Another crew on eternal patrol...people sometimes forget that what we do can be hazardous work. I'll keep a candle lit.

Continued prayers.
Thoughts and prayers going out.
From my Wing Commander:
QuoteBoth families have requested tax deductible donations to the local CAP unit instead of flowers. That money will be earmarked for a cadet flight scholarship in their honor.
