Operation Just Cause:
Panama Cadets respond after US attack
By Air Force

Civil Air Patrol News
MAXWt']I.L AFB. Ala. -Maj. dames F.A. Noyes, commander, Howard Cadet Squadron, reports that several
members of the unil responded
to calls for help following
America', recent action in
Panama.
According to Major Noyes'
report, he and the unit were
affected by events in Panama
even before President Bush's
"Operation Just Cause" began.
December 16, American
authorities in Panama initiated Personnel Movement
Limitation "Delta," following

the shooting of an American
military' oft~cer by Panamanian Defense Force personnel. This restriction on the
movement of Americans in
Panama forced Major Noyes
to cancel his unit's regular
meeting scheduled for December 18.
December 20, "Operation
Just Cause" began and movement of Americans living in
Panama was further restricted. Authorities imposed
travel restrictions to ensure
the safety of American citizens livingin Panama during
intense fightingagainst Noriega loyalists.
December 27, authorities
eased travel restrictions which
allowed Major Noyes and his
unit to begin helping in any

way they could.
"I authorized cadets to begin collecting clothing in their
neighborhoods for Panamanian refugees," said Major
Noyes in his report. Cadets
from Howard Air Force Base,
Fort Kobbe, Albrook Air Force
Station and Fort Clayton collected a truck load of used
clothing in two days. Major
Noyes and Lt. Col. Lori L.
Noyes delivered the clothing
to Red Cross officials at Balboa
High School. turned refugee
center, via travel routes listed
as 'secure' by U.S. Southern
Command officials.
Collection efforts, for beleaguered Panamanians left
homeless, continued through
January 5. Major Noyes also
reported that the chief of

chaplains at Howard Air Force
Base allowed Civil Air Patrol
to use base chapels at Howard
and Albrook as centralized collection points for donations.
Following this, both Major and
Colonel Noves made several
more deliveries to the refugee
center.
"~Aqlen I first contacted cadets to begin the clothing collection," said Major Noyes. "I
found that many were already
doing some sort of volunteer
work."
Cadet Aaron Lumpkin
sorted mail at Albrook's post
office. Cadet dames Higley did
the same at Fort Clayton.
Cadet Kristina Ruffer volunteered at the Balboa High
School refugee center. Cadet
William Cardenas helped by

stocking sheh, es and bagging
groceries at tfoward AFB's
Shopette and Cadet Corey
Fields volunteered the same
type of assistance at the U.S
Army Commissary at the
Corozal Complex.
"The effort put forth by these
and other Civil Air Patrol
members in Panama during
and after "Operation ,lust
Cause" can only be described
a s O U T S T, L \ ' D I N G , " s a i d
Civil Air Patrol National
Commander, Maj. Gen. E.E.
Harwell.
"Their commitment to sen'ice for those in need and dedicated unselfish effort in the
performance of that service is
what marks Civil Air Patrol
as the finest organization of
its kind in the world."

DESTRUCTION or RENOVATION?
The home of National Headquarters Civil Air Patrol, Building 714, Maxwell AFB, Ala., is
being renovated. Due to the extent of renovation, National Headquarters has moved,
temporarily, to nearby Gunter Air Force Base. Headquarters officials want to let Civil Air
Patrol members know that ALL HEADQUARTERS ADDRESSES REMAIN UNCHANGED.
Last month your Civil Air Patrol News printed all telephone numbers for Headquarters
directorates now located at Gunter Air Force Base. Renovations are expected to be
complete in December. Your Civil Air Patrol News will keep you posted on any future
significant news generated as a result of this renovation. (Civil Air Patrol Photo by Air

Dream comes true

Officials stated that many locally based squadron units
were incapable of responding
to authorized missions because
ground team members lacked
First Responder or equivalent
certification. They cited that
as a consequence, units farther away from the mission
area were required to respond,
thus using more Civil Air
Patrol and Air Force resources.
Members of Capital City
Composite Squadron became
concerned about the issue and
made a commitment to assist
Missouri Wing in solving the
problem.
Capital City Composite
Squadron Commander, Maj.
Dan Mallow, appointed Maj.
Don R. Barnett as project officer. Captains Jim Wiley and
Don Shackelford, both First
Responder qualified instructors, volunteered to teach the
course.
The course is a 40-hour training program that follows guide-

lines set by U.S. Department
o f Tr a n s p o r t a t i o n a n d M i s souri's Department of Health.
Its objectives are to provide
basic skills necessary to assess patients, provide basic
life support and render necessary care to prevent medical
and injury related problems
from becoming a threat to
survival. This course and
certification, or its equivalent,
is required for Civil Air Patrol
ground team leaders in Missouri.
As part of a continuing outreach service, Capital City
Composite Squadron has prepared a short Civil Air Patrol
"First Responder Implementation Guide" for use by interested units in Missouri and
elsewhere.
.The guide is available upon
request by writing to:

Alabama unit earns
special $500 gift
MOBILE, Ala. -- Mobile
Composite Squadron, Alabama
Wing recently received a $500
donation in the name of
Stephen Mohlman, who died
in an aircraft accident near
here in March 1989, from his
widow, Nancy Mohlman.
Mohlman was a passenger
aboard a Cessna 172, March
17, 1989, traveling to Mobile
from New Orleans when the
aircraft apparently encountered hazardous weather
conditions and subsequently
disappeared.
Mobile Composite Squadron
was notified of the aircraft
disappearance and joined in
the search. The missing aircraft was found three days
later by members of the Alabama Air National Guard. Mr.

Mohlman and the pilot of the
aircraft had not survived.
"Steve was a very special
person," said Mrs. Mohlman.
"and people have certainly
made known their feelings by
donations made to our Community Blood Bank, Special
Olympics and YMCA in his
name. Our daughters, Erika
and Megan, were a little overwhelmed at the response of so
many people.
"The girls and I would like
to express our gratitude to
Civil Air Patrol for everything
you've done to make this as
easy as possible on us. We
sincerely hope that this donation will help Civil Air Patrol
continue with the service so
others may be helped."

and that required 400 strokes

Since Maryland has a large

'Kind Hearts-- Demanding Evaluations'
By Maj. Gen. E.E. Harweli
national commander
Civil Air Patrol
MAXWELL AFB, Ala -Each year we assess our
achievements of the past year.
As I look back, the view is parti:ularly pleasing. There are
many areas where we can be

proud of our results: CAPMAP, Search and Rescue results, SAR and Disaster Relief evaluations, various training schools, cadet competition,
etc.
The one activity providing
the broadest view of Civil Air
Patrol capabilities is our Inspector General visit program

to each wing. During these
visits, the IGlooks at 18 areas
that encompass Civil Air Patrol's missions.
I ask you to review the accompanying chart listing IG
ratings which Civil Air Patrol
wings earned during the past
three years. Overall ratings

'Eagle Flights' fulfill dreams for disabled
FULLERTON, Calif. -- For many
disabled people, the experience of flying
in small aircraft is only a dream.
Thanks to a group of volunteers led by
two Civil Air Patrol members, the
dream again became a reality. North
Orange County Composite Squadron,
California Wing, assisted in the sixth
annual "Eagle Flights" held recently
at Fullerton's Municipal Airport sponsored by local business organizations.
One hundred and eighty volunteers
including 30 pilots flying 28 civilian
light aircraft, made 137 flights, providing flights to 412 disabled people.
Each flight lasted approximately 15
minutes. Flight paths took the "Eagles"
over Knotts Berry Farm, Disneyland
and Anaheim Stadium, as well as of-

weekend hiker, Fred Klaber, slipped
and fell from a 15-foot cliff' during a
recent outing here, breaking hoth bones
in his left leg.
His companion, Jim tlolcomb, also
of Dayton, summoned eight members
of Kentucky Wing's Mt. Sterling
Composite Squadron who were nearby
participating in a winter search and
rescue practice exercise. Four inches
of snow with deep drifts and subfreezing temperatures complicated
rescue attempts.
Maj. Thomas E. Korb, squadron
commander, dispatched 1st Lt. Ray
Kearns and Cadet Julie Hall to seek
help. They returned within two hours
with a backboard, an emergency
medical technician, ambulance and
12 volunteers. Cadets Eddie Roush
and Danny Pooley stayed with the
victim, comforting him until help

arrived.
Lieutenant Kearns hiked to the victitn's campsite and retrieved the biker's
ramping gear. Meanwhile, Klaber's
leg ~as air-splinted and he was placed
on the backboard and carried nearly
three miles through some of the most
treacherous terrain in Kentucky to
reach a road where the ambulance
was waiting.
Klaber was transferred to Clark
County Hospital in Winchester, where
he was admitted and received treatment for his injuries.
Major Korb and Lieutenant Kearns
drove to Clark County Hospital to
check on the hikers and return their
camping gear. Both expressed deep
gratitude for assistance provided by
Civil Air Patrol.
Other members of the rescue team
were Cadets Jacob Chambers, Eric

Expo '89 shows profit
STUDIO ~ITY, Califi -- "It was one
of the best and most profitable airshows Los Angeles Group 1 and its
units have attended," said Maj. James
E. Briggs, Group 1 commander, after
t w o d a y s o f t h e Va n N u y s A i r p o r t
Aviation Expo '89.
Group 1 Headquarters, Jay Weinsoft Cadet Squadron and Burbank
Angel Cadet Squadron, had booths at
the event.
Los Angeles police official s estim ate
that 210,000 people attended. Robert
Hayes, an airport spokesman, said
sales at concessionaire booths totaled
$94,000 with a percentage going to
many community organizations.
Civil Air Patrol recruiting material
and signs were located at each booth

and many visitors inquired about
membership. Chaplain (Capt.) Gene
French answered recruiting questions
and gave brochures to interested
customers at the Group 1 booth.
Group 1 officials say they can now
buy a computer which will assist in
the flow of information from California Wing, through Group 1, to the 13
squadrons within the group.
Sources also state that several Group
1 units can now buy equipment they
have needed for a long time.
Air Force, Navy and Marines all
exhibited their latest aircraft and
equipment. Fighters, bombers, transports and refueling aircraft were on
exhibit. The B-1B bomber was one of
the major attractions.

MAXWELL AFB, Ala. -- A previous "Historical Notes" column gave a
short list of Civil Air Patrol ribbons
used by different armed forces organizations. This article follows-up on the
previous story and lists a few more examples.
Additional research into finding out
where and how Civil Air Patrol ribbons have been used has revealed the
following:
Civil Air Patrol's Girls Exchange
Ribbon, now obsolete, matches the
ribbon of the "Young Marines" Musician Ribbon.
The Jet Orientation Course Ribbon,
now obsolete, matches the ribbon for
the Oklahoma National Guard Distinguished Service Medal.
The new, all red version of the International Air Cadet Exchange Ribbon is identical to the Virgin Islands
National Guard Distinguished Service Award.
.
.
.
.
l
The new versmn of Cwfl Air Patro, s
Encampment Ribbon matches the
award ribbon for the Colonial Police
Meritorious Service Medal of Great
Britain, introduced in 1934.
Civil Air Patrol's Senior Recruiter
Ribbon matche.s the Mi,ssissippi Natimml (;uard !~e~'ruiting,and Re,tqn-

tion Ribbon and is also identical to the
Ohio National Guard Distinguished
Service Medal Ribbon.
The Unit Citation Award Ribbon
matches three awards: the Oklahoma National Guard Exceptional
Service Ribbon, the old Texas State
Guard Civil Defense Ribbon and the
Ireland Constabulary Medal for Great
Britain.
When white propellers were removed
from the IACE ribbon a couple years
ago, it became just a plain red ribbon.
Here is a list of foreign ribbons that
match the new IACE ribbon.
Czechoslovakian Socialist Republic's Decoration for Labor, a civilian
award.
France's Legion d' Honneur - Chevalier.
Norway's Haakon VII Jubilee Medal
and King's Commemorative Medal for
Household Staff
Socialist Federal Republic of Yugoslavia's Order of the Partisan Star.
When one compares all the ribbons
listed here and in the previous article,
they will notice that no organization
has ever used a Civil Air Patrol ribbon
with a ti~ree-blade propeller as part of
the design.
In this, we are. unique.

Civil Air Patrol is in a very dynamic
period.
We're in a threatening and litigious
environment and a laissez-faire approach will no longer work. The corporation itself is potentially a hostage
and positive action is needed to ensure its protection.
Federal Employees Compensation
Act and Federal Tort Claims Act coverage, aviation and personal liability
insurance and cadet protection provisions, that were nonexistent in the
early 1980s, are realities in the 1990s.
As a result, many policies had to
change and decisions leading to those
policies were often difficult.
In each case numerous options were
presented, studied and discussed before policies were decided by Civil Air
Patrol's National Board, National
Executive Committee and the Air
Force.
Legal considerations, risk assessmerits and individual member impacts
were thoroughly investigated. The outcome: More regulations, more control,
and yes, more expense. However, there
is also more sound management across
the board.
But changes in the way ofdoingcorporate business are not enough. The
membership has to understand, accept and support the necessary policies.
The decision makers recognized that
members are volunteers. That fact
permeated all deliberations; yet trust
in a mature constituency prevailed.
Generally, that trust has been wellfounded. In some cases it was mistaken.
This brings me to my point. The Na-

ti ,.J Headquarters' staff has been
immdated with letters, notes and phone
calls about various policy decisions.
Questions we can handle; but unseemly
.remarks are inapprop~jte.
Many members who" write or call
are armed with erroneous information. Never has the law been more
misquoted. Never have policies been
more misunderstood. And never has
this staffspent so much time answering individual inquiries and trying to
do it civilly.
To save time, we developed form
letters, but were outwitted by multiple, random queries. Thank goodness for the word processor or we
would be even further behind.
For those who have not yet written,
the following is provided:
1.Civil Air Patrol is not a federal
agency and the Freedom of Information Act does not apply to Civil Air
Patrol.
2.The Privacy Act does not preclude
using Social Security numbers and
Social Security numbers may be used
for identification purposes with the
member's permission.
3.Fingerprints are necessary to
maintain a viable cadet program.
4.Rules have been established to
protect the reasonable member from
hazardous situations both physical and
legal. No rule can protect the determined, irresponsible individual.
5.Civil Air Patrol membership is
not a constitutional right.
We hope the above will cut down on
the mail. We try to answer all inquiries, but can't continue to devote more
time responding to individual challenges of various decisions.
Be assured there are well-founded
reasons for the policies by which we
all abide. Each is established to support the goals and objectives of our
Civil Air Patrol. Be safe.

'Response '89' tests medical readiness
MINNEAPOLIS -Senior members and
cadets of Minnesota Wing
had a chance recently to
act as "earthquake v~ctims" during a drill which
was part of a test of the
National Disaster Medical System.
Code-named "Response '89," the drill was
designed to test the efficiency and ability of local
medical teams as well as
military logistic support,
in case of a national disaster, such as a tornado,
flood, or major earthquake.
Scenario for this test
however, was a simulated
earthquake in California.
As part of the scenario,

over-crowded hospitals in
the disaster area necessxtated evacuation of victims to hospitals in other
parts of the country
Minneapolis/St. Paul
area hospitals have been
designated to receive and
treat victims for such
emergencies.
To make the test Iook
as real as possible, 'victims' were made-up with
fake blood and injuries
by moulage teams.
Injury descriptions
were tagged onto all patients who were then
loaded onto C-130 transport aircraft to be flown
to Chicago and Indianapolis, the cities involved
in this first inter-regional

exchar~e of smn~lnl.e0 Datient,~ tn a dl,~as[er exe~
cise
Indlanapohs and Chicago personnel were
flown to Minneapolis/St
Paul where medical and
military teams carried
out their assignments.
This was the tFurd dull
of its kind, but the first
inter-regional exchange
of simulated patients.
Approximately 3,000
people, 21 hospitals and
medical centers, 21 ambulances and six C-130
transports were involved
in this test. According to
evaluation teams from
several state and federal
agencies the exercise was
a success.

HOSPITAL CARE- Once simulated victims arrive at designated
hospitals, they are evaluated by
doctors and nurses and receive
necessary treatment, More than
20 hospitals took part in the
recent National Disaster Medical System exercise. (Civil Air

New Mexico Wing cadet earns Lifesaving Award
FA R M I N G TO N , N . M . - - C a d e t
Gordon Weimer, Farmington Composite Squadron, New Mexico Wing,
recently received Civil Air Patrol's
LifesavingAward for htdllilagrescue a
drowning man.
August 13, 1988, while boatingwith
several members of his family on Blue
Mesa Lake, Colo., Cadet Weimer heard
a cry for help.
Turning their attention toward the
sound of the plea, they observed an
overturned sailboat and a man floundering in the water nearby. The group,
including Cadet Weimer, immediately
went to help.
Arriving at the scene, Cadet Weimer
and his three companions pulled the

man from the water, righted t!~,, sailboat, and made sure the boater made
it to shore safely by providing escort.
Witnesses at the lake say that the
man would never l~ave been able to
swim to shore. There were few boats
on the lake as it was becoming dark,
the distance was quite far, and the
victim was not wearing a life preserver.
The award was approved by Civil
Air Patrol's National Commander, Maj.
Gen. E. E. Harwell, and presented to
Cadet Weimer by New Mexico Wing
Commander, Col. Robert E. Haulenbeck, at a Cadet NCO Training program in LaB Cruces, N.M.
Also presented to Cadet Weimer

were two Commander's Commendations: one for outstanding performance as cadet commander for Farmington Composite Squadron; the other
fox m~panding to a crisis by assistinlg.~,~
in the conduct of Cadet NCO Training
after the senior member in charge of
training was hospitalized.
Cadet Weimer was also appointed
to represent New Mexico Wing as
Region Delegate for 1990's Cadet
Advisory Council.
Gordon is the son of Jim and Glennetta Weimer of Farmington and is a
junior at Farmington High School.
He plans to become a pilot and serve
in the U.S. Armed Forces.

Staff college grads issue statement
GOODYEAR, Ariz. -- Six officers from Goodyear Composite
Squadron, Arizona Wing, were
graduated from Southwest Region
Staff College recently. These officers have collectively prepared a
statement for all senior Civil Air
Patrol members who have yet to
experience the college and the level
of "bonding" that goes with attending. Their statement reads as follows:
"If you are serious about your involvement with and dedication to,
the total Civil Air Patrol mission

.. do not miss the opportunity to
attend a Region StaffCollege. Yes,
it is like drinking water out of a
firehose. But, it is worth every
drop that you manage, in the end,
to swallow. Those of us who have
been part of the Region Staff College experience are bound by an
unwritten code not to divulge all
its 'tricks and secrets.' Therefore,
to whet your appetite, here is a
'smattering' of what you can look
forward to and what was taught."
We were taught to listen.
We w e r e t a u g h t t h e m e a n i n g

of living, and functioning, on four
hours sleep.
We w e r e t a u g h t n o t t o " m u r der" the queen's English.
We w e r e t a u g h t h o w t o w o r k
together despite our differences.
We w e r e t a u g h t t h e v a l u e o f
internal communications skills.
We were taught about pride.
We were taught what it means
to be special.
We w e r e t a u g h t t h a t R e g i o n
Staff College is not a destination;
it's part of a journey.

Group 30 best in '89

Louisiana Wing joins Cessna search

MIDDLETOWN, Pa. -- Central Pennsylvania Group
30, representing seven counties in South-central Pennsylvania, has been selected as Pennsylvania Wing's Group of
the Year.
Group 30 was selected from 15 geographic units that
comprise the state's 67 counties.
Besides being named as Group of the Year, Group 30
also captured first or second place honors in seven of 11
categories for which Pennsylvania Wing's groups and 68
squadrons are judged.
Awards given to Group 30 recently included: First Place
in Logistics, First Place in Administration, First Place in
Safety, First Place in Operations, First Place in Public
Affairs, Second Place in Inspections and Second Place in
Cadet Programs.
Group 30 has squadrons located in Carlisle, Chambersburg, Hershey, Lebanon, Mechanicsburg, New Cumberland, Lancaster and York, Pa.

ABITA SPRINGS, La. -Louisiana Wing Mission Coordinator, Lt. Col. J. Malbrough, received notice from
Scott AFB, Ill., recently, that
a Cessna 210 disappeared from
radar outside the St. Tammany Airport here. Within
minutes of the notification,
Louisiana Wing Commander,
Col. Wallace Ansardi, was
alerted and aircrews and
ground teams from several
area squadrons began preparation.
Once at the airport, crews
received a briefi ng and search
efforts began.
The missing craft was en-

route from Texas to Abita
Springs when it was lost from
radar shortly after the pilot
had advised traffic control personnel that he had the airport
in sight.
No electronic signal was
picked up by either the Search
and Rescue Satellite-Aided
Tracking system or search
crews.
Last known area-location
was dense with foliage and
visibility from normal search
altitudes, according to Louisiana Wing sources, was difficult. The U.S. Coast Guard
sent a helicopter to assist. The
helicopter was able to fly closer

to tree-top level, providing
search efforts an advantage
in altitude and airspeed.
Wreckage of the aircraft was
spotted by the Coast Guard
crew who said the site could
barely be seen. The aircraft,
according to the Coast Guard
crew, appeared to have crashed
under cover of dense trees.
Civil Air Patrol ground
teams, along with deputies
from St. Tammany Sheriffs
Office, were directed to the
scene.
When searchers arrived at
the scene, the only survivor
was a small dog.

Illinois Wing hosts 1989 conference
D E C AT U R , I l l . - - M o r e
than 400 senior members and
cadets attended the 1989 Illinois Wing Conference here recently. Illinois Wing Commander, Col. Lawrence Lis,
set the tone by stating the
Conference Theme: "Participation is the Key," in his openingremarks to the general assembly.
Conference sessions included seminars on aerospace
education, cadet programs and
emergency serwces.
Each seminar was presented
twice so members could attend seminars they were in-

terested in.
A photography class was also
offered by professional photojournalist, 1st Lt. Becky
Rhoads of Coles County Composite Squadron.
The awards banquet, accordi n g t o 1 s t L t . D a v i d W.
Schwieger, was the conference highlight.
Illinois Air National Guard
Brig. Gen. T~m Napolitan,
received a ~aque from ~olonel Lis, honoring IA.N~ for
their "great support given to
Civil Air Patrol." General
Napolitan then presented a
Gen. Carl A. Spaatz Award to

Cadet Christopher Taylor,
Quad City Composite SquadFOrt.

Other awards presented
were: Senior Man of the Year,
to Lt. Col. Frank Kelly, Illinois Wing's director of administration; Communicator of the
Year, to Lt. Col. Burl Grupe,
Group 10 commander; Cadet
of the Year, to Senquil Paik,
Elk Grove Composite Squadran; and a Unit Citation Award
for exceptional meritorious
service went to Capt. John
Contarino, McClean County
Composite Squadron.

Texas squadron trains on horseback
H O U S TO N - - A l i e f A i r borne Composite Squadron
and Air Explorer Post 1,373,
Boy Scouts of America, participated in the first practice
search and rescue exercise on
horseback at the Boy Scout's
E! Rancho Cima, near San
Marcos, Texas recently.
Eleven cadets and five senior members took advantage
of the invitation by BSA to

train in this search exercise
using horses to facilitate a
ground team reaching its goal.
The ranch offered rough,
inaccessible terrain in which
horses could assist ground
teams in finding and reaching a simulated crash site
faster than teams on foot.
Communications was set up
by Capt. Donald Brown, commander of Alief Airborne

Composite Squadron, using
VHF-simplex from a mobile
radio and a J-pole antenna
anchored in a tree. Handheld radios were used by the
ground/horse team.
The simulated crash site and
two survivors were found
within two hours. Another
practice search and rescue
exercise using horses is being
planned.

Washoe helps bikers
RENO, Nev. -- Nevada Wing's Washoe Jeep Squadron
recently provided communications and other support for a
Multiple Sclerosis, 150-mile Bike-A-Thon's 170 bicycle
riders.
Nevada Wing members encountered one accident during the event involving three bikers. They were given first
aid by Senior Members Orme Kilburn and Quincy McComan. Two of the victims were transported to Yerington
Community Hospital in Yerington, Nev., by Senior Member Tom Parker, for further medical attention. They were
released later that day.
At the close of the bike-a-thon a large barbecue was held
for everyone by Multiple Sclerosis officials. This year's
event, according to officials, raised $70,000 for the Multiple Sclerosis Society.
%Ve had 24 personnel, 16 ground vehicles and two
. ziircraft im'olved in support of the event," said Capt. Don
Ro.~enbal m, Washoe Jeep Squadron. "We are glad Civil Air
Patrol could help."

399th aids community
DANBURY, Conn. -- Community service recently filled
the lives of Connecticut Wing's 399th Composite Squadron. These community service activities, plus regular
squadron functions and four Emergency Locator Transmitter searches, have reportedly kept the unit very busy.
Eight cadets and eight senior members set up a staging
area used for incoming telephone pledges and manned
phones during a 30-hour period for a recent charity
telethon.
A dozen cadets and seniors joined more than 500 athletes to support American Red Cross in its annual "Chuck's.
Triathlon" here recently. Athletes showed their support
by swimming, bicycling and running. The 399th showed
their support by providing communications along with
site and traffic control support.
