Annual Report and more...
In recognition of Air Force Capt. Julian Gluck's outstanding service, he is Air Force Times’ 2018 Airman of the Year. Over the course of his six years of service, he has given back to the communities in which the Air Force embeds him — be it foreign workers in Qatar, Japanese airmen over the Pacific Ocean, or local high school students outside his home duty station of Barksdale Air Force Base, Louisiana.
Cadet Officer School marked its 50th year this summer, welcoming cadets from 35 wings and two overseas squadrons from Germany and Japan to Maxwell Air Force Base, Alabama, home of Civil Air Patrol National Headquarters.
The Florida Wing's representatives in Civil Air Patrol's National Cadet Competition topped the 16-team, 96-cadet field this year, with the Wesley Chapel Cadet Squadron's cadets placing first overall and the Pines-Miramar Cadet Squadron finishing second.
Representing the US on the International Air Cadet Exchange
Thirty-eight Civil Air Patrol cadets from 22 wings gather at their launching hubs Monday before leaving to represent the United States on an international exchange of goodwill and a mutual love of aviation.
A 34-page version of the 2017 Annual Report, excluding the financial audit documentation found in the back of the full report, is now available for download. The publication features engagingly laid out and photo-intensive overviews of CAP's core missions.
