cadet oath wrong online

[coudano]

so i just did a quick internet search for civil air patrol cadet oath
and shockingly like the first several results are not verbatim...

most commonly they say "i pledge to serve faithfully"

astonishing.

That's close, but this is what it should say:

I pledge that I will serve faithfully in the Civil Air Patrol Cadet Program, that I will attend meetings regularly, participate actively in unit activities, obey my officers, wear my uniform properly, and advance my education and training rapidly to prepare myself to be of service to my community, state, and nation.

Just a little nitpick:

I pledge that I will serve faithfully in the Civil Air Patrol Cadet Program, and that I will attend meetings regularly, participate actively in unit activities, obey my officers, wear my uniform properly, and advance my education and training rapidly to prepare myself to be of service to my community, state, and nation.

Same as noted above.

Yeah it pissed me off when people get it wrong, in fact it would just be easier if NHQ changes it to "pledge to" since soooooooo many people get it wrong

^ Then why bother having one to begin with, if we are going to change it whenever a group of people can't memorize it correctly??

Sent a question to the CAP KB.
Replied and said they fixed it to be "I pledge that I will serve faithfully"
