Is there any benefit to sending copies of your DD214 or military training

Hmm, but yet it is up to the squadron commander (with the assistance of the membership board) to determine membership eligibility (39-2, 3-5b) which includes determining if the application should be rejected based on any of the criteria mentioned earlier in the thread.  That is a judgment call in some cases and is totally in the hand of the squadron commander.

Which includes acknowledging there is a waiver process and  availing themselves to follow it!

But they are under absolutely no obligation to endorse the request for a waiver.

I don't think they are under any obligation to even explain the possibilty of waiver unless they just desire to and that could be on a case by case basis..

No they aren't as there is no way for them to do so, the prospective member attaches a letter explaining why a waiver should be granted and sends it along with the Form 12 to National.

What makes you think it is necessary to submit a waiver?  No where in Section D does it state to do so.  If the app gets denied at the National or Exec level, then I think it would be prudent to submit a waiver.

The section that is being missed is: 3-2. Requirements for Membership. All applicants for senior membership in CAP must be accepted by the unit...

If the application doesn't make it past the unit, no need to be worring about waivers.
