Utah Recruits
Commissioners
SALT LAKE CITY, Utah--Members of the newly created Utah
Aeronautics Commission hold dual
membership thanks to the foresightedness of one of the members
and a veteran Wing commander.
The 1965 state legislature divorced aeronautics from highways
and created the new and independent state aeronautics commission.
The commission is composed of
business and professional leaders;
all of them experienced pilots;
four of them aircraft owners.
The commissioners and the director are well informed of Civil
Air Patrol in modern aviation and
acting upon the suggestion of Commissioner Dr. Donald K. Bailey,
M.D., voted unanimously to express
its support and appreciation of
CAP by joining the organization
lind urging others to do likewise.
Colonel Joe Bergin, CAP, Utah
Wing commander, personally reeruited the commission members

Helpful Uniform Hint
UNION, W. Va.--A helpful hint on proper positioning of CAP
cutouts on dress blue uniforms for males was given members of the
Greenbrier Composiie Squadron, West Virginia Wing, recently by
LI. Phil Kelly, CAP squadron commander.
He placed a cardboard under the lapel of a blouse and drew an
outline of the lapel edge on lhe cardboard. After checking CAPM
39-1 for the exact location, he drew a rectangle ~Iz" high by 11/4''
Wide on the card, then cut out the triangle. The pattern is then used
as a guide to locate the cutouts properly on a blouse.

WHEN Col. Philip F. Neuweiler, right, Pennsylvania Wing commander, learned that an Allentown
(Pa.) mother had 80 pounds of homemade cookies for her son's platoon at Parris Island, S.C., he
started an airlift of the "supplies." The colonel contacted Col. Allan C. Perkinson, Virginia Wing
commander, second right, who assisted in moving the cookies on the second leg of the journey.

It so happened that all three memb e r s w e r e a w a y a t t h e t i m e . Tw o
of the members had families
"snowed in" while they were
"snowed out." The third memher
had a horse and steer "in" that
needed food and water.
Individually, each member drov~
his vehicle as far as possible, then
began to walk. But each found
that the waist-deep snow was too
much.
AFTER meeting with the Bishop
squadron, it was decided to take in
the unit's two "snow weasels" in

with a roc'ket launch demonstration. The result is an e'~('itin~z' adventure into the space

Air-minded cadets of the Pikes

Some 70 young men and women

took part in "Operation Penrose,"
a field trip to tour the manufacturing and research facilities of Estes
Industries in Penrose and to participate in model rocket launch
demonstrations.

not a single serious accident has

CAP NEWS .

Governor's Girls
DURING THE recent Tuberculosis Seal drive, in which Civil Air Patrol was urged to assist local
units, Maj. Ralph Snyder, CAP, Oklahoma City Composite Squadron commander, received an unexpected surprise. Miss Alice h Porter, left, state TB chairman, and Ann, second left, Gall, second right, and Pat Bellman, all daughters of Governor and Mrs. Henry Bellman, presented the
captain with TB seals autographed by Astronaut Scott Carpenter. Seals were distributed throughout the state by wing pilots.

Following Daughter
CHAPLAIN (Capt.) Wayne O. Ursenbach, chaplain for the Murray Flying Angels Squadron, Utah Wing, is following in his
daughter's footsteps. Shortly after he pinned solo wings on his
daughter, Cadet Sylvia Ursenbach, the chaplain joined the
"solo club" by soloing. The cadet earned her wings through the
1965 Naylor Flight Scholarship. She is a freshman at Brigham
Young University. (Photo courtesy Murray Angels squadron)

Winner
LIEUTENANT Lu Giefer, Sheboygan Composite Squadron,
Wisconsin, displays the trophy
she earned as the outstanding
information officer in the wing
for 1965. A member of CAP
since 1962, Lieutenant Giefer
has won the wing "Top IO"
award for three consecutive
years. She placed third nationally in 1964 and is second
after nine months of report in
1965.

Top Suggestion
A SUGGESTION for the speeding-up of CAP reimbursement
claims while participating in official Air Force missions is explained by TSgt. Giles Appling, USAF, Georga Wing liaison office NCO, to Col. Ted Limmer, CAP, wing commander. According to the sergeant, now when a claim is received, the wing
commander certifies that the individual participated and reimbursement is expedited. The suggestion has been adopted
USAF-wide.

Pool Ideas
REPRESENTATIVES from Fremont Composite Squadron and
Lima Composite Squadron, both
of the Ohio Wing, meet to pool
their ideas for an extensive
1966 membership drive. The
"recruiting" officers of the two
squadrons were accompanied
to the meeting by their cadet
offspring who provided the
cadet point of view for the
meeting. From left are we

"Flying Habit"
MOTHER Mary Raymond, CCVI, receives a briefing from Maj.
Robert L. Camma, Alamo Cadet Squadron, Texas Wing, prior to
her orientation flight. This first flight was given to Mother Raymond as reward for her recruiting 20 cadets into the CAP
program. She is superior of St. Peter's-St. Joseph's Home, San
Antonio; Seated in cockpit is Maj. Glenn B. Lacy.

Dear Colonel Morse:
I remembered the significance
of that date (December 1) and the
effect it has had on the past four
years of my life.
It was while I was thinking of
flying, SAOC, encampment, ranger
school, rescue teams, drill competition, and my squadron, that I
decided to write and tell you how
helpful I have found my CAP
training.
. . I aln enrolled in the AFROTC Program. in ROTC I have
found my CAP military training
most valuable. I had never before
realized how important the simple
skills of reporting, saluting, shining shoes, drilling and being able
to give commands are. They en
abled me to impress my superiors,
and when questioned as t o m y
background I aln proud to say

AF Academy Unit Conducts Observer Program

De.Briefing
AFTER A practice mission during the Observer Training Pro" gram, Capt. E. R. Manfrin, CAP, information officer, and Lt.
Ken Boley, supply officer, recheck the map for landmarks used
in spotting "downed" aircraft. The Air Force Academy Composite Squadron, Colorado Wing, conducts a special observer
- "program to supply skilled observers in time of official search
missions. (All photos by Capt. Manfrin)

are.flight
LT. DAVE Taylor, squadron executive officer, gives a pro-flight briefing to Clarence Brandhorst,
a prospective senior member, and SM Robert Williamson. The AF Academy squadron provides
observer training to all eligible senior members in the unit.

Gyroscope
Rough Terrain
OBSERVERS in Colorado Wing have a local terrain problem
when looking for downed aircraft. This photo, taken from 9,000
feet, shows the dense wooded area around the Black Forest
community, located seven miles from the Academy site.

Final Reward

ONE OF the important phases of the Observer
Training Program is the MITAC gyroscope instruction. Lt. Taylor, left, SM Bob Brown and
SM John Canny, right, discuss the scope which
was developed by Massachusetts Institute of
Technology to illustrate the practical concepts
of gyroscope instruments.

THE MANY hours of work and study come to a
successful end for SM Bobbin Robinson, right,
as he receives his wings from Maj. James Cooksee, CAP, squadron commander. For SM Robinson the training ends and big job of search and
rescue begins.
