It was on Sept. 18, 1947, that the
active Air Force began with the
s w e a r i n g i n o f W. S t u a r t
Symington as the first secretary
of the Air Force. The late Gen.
Carl A. "Tooey" Spaatz was the
first Air Force chief of staff.
It has been said that the Air
Force was born on an airplane.
The bill establishing the Air
Force was brought to President
Harry S. Truman shortly after
noon on July 26, 1947, and it was
signed in his personal airplane,
"The Sacred Cow." The President was preparing to fly to the
bedside of his dying mother, and
in this emotionally charged atmosphere, he signed the National
Security Act of 1947.

the record America's Army Air
Corps set during World War II
when the B-17s, the B-24s, P-47s,
P-51s .and B-29s crippled the
enemy's war-making potential.
The importance of air power was
proven beyond a doubt, leading to
establishment of the Air Force as
a separate branch of the
military.
In reality, however, the U.S.
Air Force has its roots much
further back than 1947 or even
World War II. The U.S. Air
Force began, in actual fact, when
the U.S. Army accepted its first
a i r p l a n e f r o m t h e Wr i g h t
Brothers in August of 1909.
But even earlier than that,
there was a military interest in
the air and space above. In the
bitter days of the Civil War,
federal forces made limited use
of captive balloons for observation puposes and as an elevated
platform for spotting artillery
fire.
But, officially, the Air Force
began in 1947. The plane in which
President Truman signed the
historic legislation was a C-54
transport, a propeller-driven
plane with a top speed of 265
miles per hour, slow by today's
standards. A lot of history has
been packed into the 30 years
since that day and now supersonic jets are taken for granted.
During that 30 years, the Air
Force proved itself over and
over-- as in 1948 when it licked
the blockade of West Berlin with
a massive airlift. That was
followed by the Korean conflict
when the Air Force again proved
itself with its victories over Communist MIGs and its ability to
protect friendly ground forces.
Then there was Vietnam,
politically confusing and
nationally divisive. But here airpower was used with more versatility than ever before. And it
was an intensive air campaign
against North Vietnam which
sped up the end of the conflict
and the return of America's
prisoners of war.
Today, the Air Force is the
Department of Defense's
primary space agency. The Air
Force has been closely connected
with the space effort and today
looks to space as the wave of the
future for the peace of the world
and the benefit of everyone.
During the past 30 years, Air
Force research and development
has yielded enormous benefits
for business, industry and consumers at all levels. The byproducts of this research has
made life easier and better for
people around the world.
As the Air Force looks to its
fourth decade, it is with a pledge
to continue building for international peace, national security
and the advancement of human
rights and concerns at home and
abroad.
Members of Civil Air Patrol,
the Air Force's official auxiliary
now in its 36th year, salute the
Air Force on its 30th anniversary.

Hawaii Wing Pilots Aid
National Guard Training
BARKING SANDS NAS,
Hawaii -- Civil Air Patrol pilots
from an Oahu Squadron, Hawaii
Wing, assisted the Hawaii Air
National Guard recently in its air
controller upgrading program.
The program was held here
during an entire week in June.
The Guard set up a mobile
radar unit by the Naval Air Station runway for GCA approaches,
and placed additional trainees in
the control tower under the
supervision of Naval and Federal
Aviation Administration personnel.
Seven CAP pilots, flying two L19s and a Cessna 172, contributed
much of the week's air activity
for the radar and tower controllers.
Some of the pilots roughed it by
remaining part of the week in
temporary barracks at the base,
while others commuted daily
over 70 miles of open sea between
the Islands of Kauai and Oahu, all
to give the eager Guard trainees
several hours a day of additional
practice. But even though the
GCA approaches helped sharpen
pilot instrument navigation, the
CAP pilots kept their VFR eyes
wide open, keeping in mind that
mistakes are always possible in a
training program.
At the completion of the exercise, the commander expressed
his gratitude to Civil Air Patrol
for its cooperation and requested
continued CAP participation in
the Guard's semi-annual controller training program.
For the benefit of all
members of Civil Air Patrol,
the statistics of search and
rescue activities throughout
the organization are shown

Cadets Get Taste of Rescue Training
Story and Photos
By TERRY FLETCHER
Rough Terrain Requires Careful Going.
KIRTLAND AFB, N.M.--Civil
Air Patrol cadets from 10 states
converged on New Mexico's
Pecos Wilderness recently for a
taste of Air Force pararescue
training.
Approximately37 cadets, ages
15 and older, arrived at Kirtland
to participate in CAP's
Pararescue Orientation Course
(PJOC), offered by the 1550th
Airerew Training and Test Wing
here. They were taught discipline
and wilderness awareness.
The course included 2 % days
in the classroom and a tour of
base facilities. The last four days
were spent in field training in the
Pecos.
The cadets wanted to be
treated as are regular Air Force
students of the program, and Air
Force TSgt. Dave Thompson, the
program organizer, obliged.
The cadets were required to
stay at the campsite unless
they were in class. They could
only leave the area after they
stood at attention and asked for
permission to leave. C-rations
made up their meals and a personal inspection was required
before breakfast.
Discipline was enforced with
cadets doing 50 to 100 pushups for
such infractions as standing on

sergeant," and not observing
safety rules. The strict observance of rules encouraged the
cadets to work as a team. an instructor said.
"The teamwork paid off in the
field when the cadets worked on
the traverse line, which is strung
across a canyon and used to
transfer the rescuers and an injured party in a Stoke's
stretcher." the instructor explained.
"The cadet was required to
transfer across the canyon.
usually with the encouragement
of his friends to urge him along,"
he added.
The importance of keeping
pace while hiking in the
wilderness was emphasized by
Air Force SSgt. Martin Alvarez
before he took his group on a twomile hike. Air Force TSgt. Larry
Astin made sure his cadets knew
where they were by reading the
map. Then he taught them how to
use their compasses to find the
easiest route to their destination.
This is the first year that this
CAP special cadet activity has
been held.

Search Only Make-Believe
GREAT FALLS, Mont.--It was all makebelieve--the Montana Wing search for a "missing"
plane--but it was conducted with such precision
and seriousness as to make it a vividly realistic
enactment of a search for a plane downed in mountainous terrain.
The search and 'rescue test happened on a recent
weekend, with two Air Force officers, Col. James
O. Modisette Jr., Rocky Mountain Liaison Region
commander, and Lt. Col. Richard Y. Costain of the
same office on hand to evaluate efforts of Montana
CAP members.
ON CALL--Cadet Joseph A. Haynes of the Great Falls Comp.
Sq. checks his boots while waiting for an assignment.
Thirty-five senior members utilized 10 aircraft,
part of them privately owned, on the practice mission. Base of operations was the Great Falls International Airport. Assisting in operations were 21
cadets who provided a number of services, including carrying messages and refreshments, and
assisting on the flightline.
The "missing" aircraft supposedly took off
on Fridayafternoon from Great Falls and flew, y
b
way of Rogers Pass, to Lincoln, southwest ~f
Great Falls. From there, it was to fly north to
Benchmark and then back to Great Falls. The
script for the search says the plane never made it.
To make the search more realistic, Air Force
Capt. James D. Beggerly, Montana Wing liaison ofricer, generated search leads and tips such as would
come in from the public in case of a real search. As
clues came in, Capt. Harry E. Noel Jr. of the
Gallatin Comp. Sq., mission coordinator, dispatched planes on the search.
High winds and darkness Saturday evening halted
operations but the search was resumed on Sunday
morning. On the 17th sortie, a CAP plane picked up
an ELT (emergency locator transmitter) signal
north of Benchmark. The plane homed in on the
signal. First Lt. Ruth Edwards of the Missoula
Comp. Sq., flying as an observer, quickly spotted
the "downed plane" and the two relieved Air Force
sergeants who had planted the strips of old
parachute there to simulate a plane crash.
CAP pilots logged some 36 hours flying time on
the test and, according to 1st Lt. Joan Veal, the
mission information officer, the evaluators were
well satisfied with their performance.

REPORTS
JOHNSTOWN, Penn. Civil
Air Patrol members--more than
700 of them--have again answered
the call, this time-when a flood
hit this Southwest Pennsylvania
city of 42,000 plus souls.
Floods are nothing new to
Johnstown. They began in May
1889. In that year, hundreds of
persons died when a dam collapsed upstream from the city, permitting a wall of water to sweep
away everyone and everything in
its path.
Floods hit again in 1936. When
that was over, many dams and
flood controls were built to make
sure that this city would never
again be flooded. The dams and
the controls were not enough.
In July of this year, a torrential
rain dumped 12 inches of water
on the area in seven hours. The
freak storm caused the.
Conemaugh River to rise more
than 22 feet above normal. This
resulted again in the collapse of a
dam north of Johnstown, again
sending millions of gallons of
water sweeping down the mountainside and through the city.
High water in some areas was
30 feet above flood level. Houses.
stores and factories were
crumpled and smashed and the
city--what was left of it--awoke
to the sight of floating cars.
ripped pavement and a wrecked
economy.
Flood damage was estimated
at approximately $200 million but
no one really knows what the
total is. At last count, more than
74 persons had lost their lives and
many more were unaccounted
for. Bodies of many victims,
washed downstream, may never
be found, reports indicated.
When the extent of the disaster
became known, Civil Air Patrol
members, along with personnel
'from other disaster relief agencies, converged on the area,
bringing help. The volunteers
found many urgent tasks
awaiting them.
Civil Air Patrol established a
base of operations at Cambria
County Airport and many
planeloads of supplies were flown
into that location. CAP also based its communications network
at this airport.
Drinking water was nonexistent in the city and most of
the food was contaminated.
Delivery of food and water via
four-wheel drive vehicles began.
Some CAP members performed
minor first aid as they dispensed
food to the downhearted
residents, many of whom had had
nothing to eat or drink for nearly
24 hours.
Ice for hospitals, morgues and
dairies was urgently needed.
Civil Air Patrol volunteers undertook the task of unloading and
transporting many tons of ice to
the devastated area.
Power was out in the city and
the surrounding area. Although
the hospitals in the vicinity had
backup electrical systems, some
of these failed due to flooding.
CAP furnished generators and
operators to keep these hospitals
functioning.
Cadet search and rescue teams
formed skirmish lines and
searched sections of the city
which local police believed to
contain casualties. These
searches included poking into
kneedeep mud and checking
damaged buildings. More than 1,200 homes were reportedly
destroyed.
Communications in the area
were destroyed for the most part
and, once again, CAP got the call
to help. Radio communications
were established between
several Red Cross disaster
shelters, the CAP base of
operations, and police headquarters. VHF-FM proved extremely useful as calls were
routed through a nearby
repeater.
Another task assigned Civil Air
Patrol was the transportation of
key personnel from other agencies. This was undertaken with
corporate fourwheel drive
vehicles and other memberowned vehicles.
Search and rescue operations
in the area were constantly
hampered by rumors that other
dams upstream had burst. Each
rumor had to be checked out.
GRIM SEARCH--CAP cadets search devastated highways and stream beds for signs of vehicles
or flood victims which might have been washed away by high water.
l i m l
"
In addition, tons and tons of
mud carried by the flood waters
left the whole area with a footdeep covering of slime. Cars and
trucks had been heaved on their
tops and sides and were blocking
streets and alleys. Trees lay
scattered around, torn out by
their roots. Whole sections of
four-lane highways had collapsed, blocking travel to and from
the area.
Many Pennsylvania Wing units
assisted in relief efforts during
the disaster~ even though their
members did not go to Johnstown
in person. They collected
blankets, clothing, food and
medical supplies and helped load
and transport them to the scene
of the disaster.
RELIEF EFFORT--Members of South Hills Comp. Sq. help load supplies for transport to
Johnstown.
Civil Air Patrol provided
transport for more than 250 tons
of supplies, including at least 40
tons of lime, more than two tons
of supplies, and in excess of 50
tons of ice, according to one
report.
A variety of corporate and
member-owned vehicles were
utilized in the four-day mission,
plus several corporate aircraft
used for reconnaissance and airlift.
Although CAP was just one of
the many organizations which
assisted in the emergency, much
credit goes to the cadets and
senior members who responded.
Hundreds were involved in one
way or another in the over-all effort.
It is not possible to list all units
which participated. However, the
following were among those involved: Group 50, Group 70,
Group 60, Group 1300, Group
1400, Squadron 602 and Squadron
613.

Cadet Encampment at Pease AFB,
PEASE AFB, N.H.--A Civil Air Patrol encampment, held
here in July, brought cadets from the New Hampshire and
Maine Wings for a busy week of activities at this Strategic
Air Command base in the southeast corner of New
Hampshire.
The cadets lived in Air Force dormitories, stood inspection,
toured base facilities including a nearby Coast Guard unit,
watched demonstrations, learned a lot and had a lot of fun.
The encampment was typical of the many in which CAP
cadets participate each year. On these pages is a selection of
photographs depicting the action at Pease during the week.
They illustrate some of the things many other CAP cadets did
this summer.

N o . 1 Unit Has Reci pe for Succe s s
Winning Similar
To Baking Cake
By LT. COL. RICHARD B. FRY
Squadron Commander
B A R B E R ' S P O I N T,
Hawaii--The Ewa Beach Cadet
Sq., located here, was selected as
the No. 1 cadet unit for 1976, the
Cadet Squadron of Distinction.
What does it take to be No. 17
Achieving this distinction is
something like following the
recipe for making a cake.
There are three main ingredients in earning the Cadet
Squadron of Distinction honor: 1.
Strong senior and cadet
leadership; 2, interested
teenagers: and, 3, a well-planned
organization.
Strong senior and cadet
leadership will result if a unified
goal is set that both can relate to.
The major goal of our squadron
is learning Aerospace Education
and glider and power flying.
A simple goal that is easy to
talk about, write about or
demonstrate draws interested
teenagers. Another good technique is to have your cadets bring a
friend, cousin or brother-sister to
a CAP meeting.
Instill the recruiting spirit into
them and your squadron will
reflect their mood. One final tip,
screen out the undesirables. One
misfit can create havoc in your
rank and file membership and
destroy all enthusiasm others
may have.
The third ingredient is a wellplanned organization. Ensure
that each cadet knows what hisher job is and how his-her job
relates to the over-all
organizational plan. Communicate with your cadets and
you won't be disappointed. As
squadron commander, I follow a
management technique called
"Participative Management"
which is simply: "Let the kids
have their say about running the
squadron." Believe me, it works.
Part of a well-planned
organization is the actual activities. During one month's
time, plan a variety of acOvities
to maintain cadets' interest. For
instance, glider flying on the first
Saturday, drilling-testing on the
next Saturday, power flying on
the third Saturday, and a beach
outing on the last Saturday. Why
a beach outing? It doesn't have to
be a beach outing. For those in
colder climates, a skiing outing
or a skating outing will be a great
substitute. The main purpose is
to be outdoors. This is the perfect
time for "rapping" with your
cadets.
Once a year, hold a "Class B"
encampment during the Christmas or summer vacation.
Schedule the encampment for approximately 10 days, preferably
on a military installation. This
will introduce your cadets to the
rigors of barracks life. spit and
polish of military uniforms and
duty watches.
Schedule helicopter orientation
and rappelling, the art of descending from cliffs using ropes and
Swiss seats.
These and other activities
maintain teenagers' interest. If
you have the interest of both
seniors and cadets, how can you
not have a winning combination?
Rappelling is easy

Members of Oregon Wing
Stage Civil Defense Test.
STORY AND PHOTOS
By CAPT. THOMAS TRAVER
MADRAS, Ore.--More than 120
members of the Oregon Wing,
representing 20 squadrons, participated recently in a Civil
Defense Effectiveness Exercise
here in the north central part of
the state.
The exercise, held in cooperation with local law enforcement
and emergency service
authorities, was coordinated by
the Air Force, the Oregon
Department of Emergency Services and the Federal Disaster
Assistance Administration. The
practice mission utilized some 20
CAP and private aircraft, supported by 15 ground rescue teams
and 18 emergency mobile communications units.
EMERGENCY COMMUNICATIONS--Cadets Kenneth N.
Reisner, left, and David P. Rader man communications
equipment inside Oregon Wing command van.
The test involved a situation
which is very likely in the West
Coast area--an earthquake.-In
this instance, a major aftershock
from a devastating earlier
'quake, registering 8.2 on the
Richter scale, supposedly bit the
north central portion of Oregon.
CAP units were called on to fly
damage evaluation missions as
well as to check major peaks,
Mt. Hood and Mt. Jefferson, for
seismic activity.
OFFICIAL IMPRESSED--Hamilton Perkins, left, sheriff of
Jefferson County, chats with Col. Bobbie Girard, Oregon
Wing commander. The impressed sheriff joined CAP that
day.
CAP personnel also flew air
evacuation for injured civilians
and air drops of emergency
medical supplies and helped
reestablish communications for
cut-off communities in the area.
Madras Airport was a bustle of
activity with CAP aircraft virtually covering the entire field.
Local authorities also had a
part in the staged disaster as the
Madras Fire Department was
called on to assist in an aircraft
accident involving four CAP
members. The department
responded in a little over four
minutes from the initial call,
with 10 personnel and three
pieces of equipment.
EFFORTS AT REVIVAL--Cadet Janneile L. Olinger plays

Feedback Aids in Rewriting Manual
By MAJ. ROBERT MATTSON
HQ. CAP-USAF
I want to thank everyone who
has responded to my request for
feedback. You have shown me
that there are dedicated, concerned-and frustrated-members performing our
humanitarian mission. You have
given me some excellent
material to include in the revised
Emergency Services Manual and
some support for the ideas I have
expressed in this column. Also,
you brought up some problems
that must be addressed if we are
to provide our communities with
the best search and rescue
capability.
I am working on a complete
rewrite of all emergency service
manuals, and I appreciate the
input from those attending the
National Search and Rescue
School. With luck, the first portion of the Emergency Service
Manual will be available early in
1978. The new manual will be one
all-inclusive book divided into
sections for the commanders;
emergency service officers; mission coordinator and staff; aircrew; and data collection-ground
teams. To make this revision as
usable as possible, I need your
ideas on what to change and,
more important, the techniques
and procedures you have
developed which are effective.
The idea this month comes
Form 104 and using a random
search POD chart. Because of
space limitations, only two of his
six charts are reproduced here. I
am eager to hear your reactions
to and comments on Bob's
from Capt. Robert A. Gregoire of
the Pennsylvania Wing, Group
30, RD. 2, Box P-72, Carlisle,
Penn. 17013. Bob has been working on methods of simplifying the
paperwork required on a mission. He has his own home-brew
computer (IMASI micro, 61K
memory; two video terminals,
one teletype, one printer, one
dual-disk drive with 500K
storage, plus other odds and
ends) and has been very busy using it to solve SAR-related
problems. If anyone else is working a mini, get with Bob and
share, Share, SHARE! Good
luck !
Here is only one of Bob's ideas.
He is trying to simplify the
Probability of Detection (POD)
computations. His approach is to
use a few simple graphs rather
than the one table and correction
factors as listed in CAPM 50-15.
Additionally, he has presented an
alternate method of computing
cumulative POD. Using these
charts will give you the same
POD as calculations on the
debriefing side of the 1976 CAP

Reduce Hazard Potential
To C u t I n j u r i e s , Loss
By FREDERICK K. CARTER
Lieutenant Colonel, USAF
Director of Safety
The pursuit of CAP objectives
involves diverse and often hazard o u s a c t i v i t i e s. T h e
REDUCTION of HAZARD
POTENTIAL is a MUST for each
CAP MEMBER, more especially
SUPERVISORS, to ensure that
injuries and loss of life and equipment do not overshadow "saves"
and "finds."
.
A peer through the looking
glass of member involvement in
CAP activity occasionally
reveals threatening events and
practices which may result in
tragedy. Chart No. 1 depicts
three major factors present in
these or any activities which
must be considered for the benefit of all concerned. These factors are:
b.-Judgment -- the capacity
the physical capacity of equipment, persons, or groups of
persons to perform as intended.
This capacity is subject to the
condition of equipment and the
health of person involved.
b. Judgement -- the capacity
to estimate correctly the effect
of all human, equipment, and environmental factors. This capability is subject to a person's
source of motivation, e.g., ego.
c. Mission (Job) Demand -- the"
task to be accomplished and the
associated conditions such as
time, weather, terrain, and
equipment. Mission demands are
subject to individual interpretation and are often a product ~f
ego or self-image.
Chart No. 1 also shows a training period which, hopefully,

CIVIL AIR PATROL NEWS
provides an opportunity for
developing judgment under
capable supervision. Following
the training period, the trainee
successfully meets job demands
within his/her capabilities and
those of the equipment in use.
Performance capability and
judgment must be constantly
developed and/or considered to
avoid exceeding the limits of
available resources while pursuing mission demands, either
actual or perceived. Chart No. 2
depicts a theoretical accident
where performance and judgment limitations were exceeded.
To i g n o r e t h e f a c t o f t h e
presence of risk in any mission is
to be unrealistic. CAP

and
COOPERATIVE EFFORT at all
levels of command. CAP seeks to
promote expertise within the individual and the organization.
Evaluation of the total situation
by each CAP member is invaluable as it develops the insight necessary to protect
ourselves and others from unnecessary loss.
There is always room for
closer, conscientious supervision
to close the gap between performance capability and judgment
in challenging endeavors. For
some, the closing of this gap adds
to the challenge; for others, it
may appear to detract from the
fun of certain activities. One
thing is certain, accidents are not

YOURSELF through the
LOOKING GLASS can make the
difference. How about taking a
look, for yourself and CAP's
sake!

National Staff College Now History
Lessons Learned, Friends Will Long Remain
By CH. (COL.) LUTHER M.
SMITH
Chairman, National Chaplain
Committee
The National Staff College for
1977 is now history but the
lessons learned and the friends
made will long remain.
As the time came closer to go
to Maxwell AFB, there was no
clear picture of the curriculum,
the instructors, or what would be
expected of the student body.
I was assigned to Seminar I
which was made up of senior
CAP officers. Our seminar
leader was the commander of the
Oklahoma Wing, Col. Sam
Pierce. Our seminar included: a
wing commander, a deputy wing
commander, a wing information
officer, a group commander, a
unit operations officer, a PH.D.
who teaches at a state university,
a region chaplain, and the chairman of the National Chaplain
Committee.
Seminar I had two observers
representing the Coast Guard
Auxiliary--Commodore Tom
Cook and Capt. John Potts.
The principal surprise was the
high level of instruction, the-innovative methods of teaching and
the broad range of subjects.
Interpersonal and group com~aunication, leadership management, counseling techniques and
instructional methodology were
taught. The lecturers were on the
university level with a significant
number of doctorates among
them. The Air University furnished a majority of the-instructors in the theory and practice of
management and other technical
subjects. There were 32 hours of
lectures and 18 hours of Seminar
Projects.
On Saturday, the students of
the NSC were taken by bus to
Project X. This exercise is a
problem-solving field project
with 10 ingeniously designed settings to demonstrate group
problem-solving in a setting
where the mind and body are to
be used. Within 15 minutes, the
project was to be read, a solution
decided upon and carried out
within a varying number of
restrictions.
Among the lecturers was Dr.
Garber (Dr. Paul E. Garber), for
57 years a leader at the Smithso-
nian Institution and more lately
active in setting up National Air
and Space Museum in
Washington, D.C. Dr. Garber,
with slides and stories of his experiences and personal
friendship with many of the people who made aviation history,
made the hi§tory of the airplane
come alive.
He, with a group of five experts
in the field of aviation history,
picked 13 flying machines from
the world that made the most
significant impact on aviation
history. The list started with the
Wright Brothers' plane and
finished with the X-15. All who
listened were transported
through 70 years of man's
achievement in the air.
Dr. Richard Ovington of the
D i r e c t o r a t e o f Tr a i n i n g a t
Headquarters, CAP-USAF, ably
carried a major role in the entire
NSC program, serving as a lec-
turer, resource person, and
anchor man.
Dr. Mervin K. Strickler Jr..
chief of the Aviation Education
Programs Division of the
Federal Aviation Administration, using a slide presentation,
brought a new depth of understanding to the student body.
Words are inadequate to
d e s c r i b e p r o p e r ly t h e
challenge and genuine enjoyment
of the entire experience of the
NSC.
The NSC course of study has
major application to CAP activities but also to the civilian occupation of all who deal with
others on a daily basis.
The addresses of both Brig.
Gen. Thomas Casaday, CAP
national commander, and Brig.
Gen: Carl S. Miller, USAF, executive director of CAP, set the
tone of the NSC at the opening
ceremony. Their evaluation of
the level of the curriculum and
the experience of the faculty
were justified completely by the
day of graduation after 10 days.
Beginning with this issue, Civil Air Patrol News will publish each
month a list of Civil Air Patrol members who have died recently.
Notices of deaths should be sent to the Personnel Section of National
Headquarters in accordance with CAP Regulation 35-2, not to Civil
Air Patrol News. Listed are names, ranks, dates of death, and CAP
units.)

164oot sailboat.
On June 20, the two women,
flying an L-19, joined another
CAP aircraft and two Coast
Guard rescue aircraft in
searching an area covering more
than 1,000 square miles. After
spending only two and a half
hours in the search area, the
CAP aircraft spotted the sailboat, a Hobie "Cat," drifting
helplessly between the Islands of
Lanai and Maul.
Using the L-19's public address
system, Capt. Weatherwax
reassured the lost sailors that
they were found and that Coast
Guard help was on the way, while
Capt. Tompkins kept the plane
circling the boat and radioing its
position to the Coast Guard rescue helicopter.
The pair had set out from the
Island of Maul for an overnight
sail to Lanai. Halfway to their
destination, bad weather
developed and the boat capsized.
They managed to right the craft,
but the mast broke in the
process. When they failed to
reach port at the appointed time,
friends notified the Coast Guard
Rescue Coordination Center and
the search began.
USCG Rear Adm. James
Moreau commended Capts.
Tompkins and Weatherwax for
their excellent performance.

The National Headquarters Information Office is ready to help you with your information and recruiting programs.
That's what we are here for; let us hear from you.
A D M I N I S T R AT I O N

2. LACK OF RESPONSE AND ACTION! The importance of the information program in the operational conduct of
many CAP units still seems to take a back seat in too many CAP units. The general recruiting rate reflects this indifference to the information program. Only 151 units (of a possible 1,936) asked for tapes of CAP radio spots following
our announcements of their availability. That adds up to only 7.8 percent of CAP units responding to an opportunity
to promote CAP in their community with just a little effort. Over 65 percent of the CAP radio tapes had to be mailed
direct to radio stations selected by National Headquarters Information Office. This is not the preferred way of
obtaining "free air time" for CAP radio spots announcements. As we have commented numerous times in the Civil
Air Patrol News Bulletin Board section, "there just aren't enough hours in the day for broadcast stations to satisfy
every request they receive for free air time." Personal contact by CAP members is the best way of obtaining cooperation from a broadcast station to use CAP spots occasionally in the station's public service programming. We still have
20-second CAP film spots for television; and we will have a few of the new 30-second CAP frim spots left after filling
current requests. As we commented a number of times in the past, you should call on your local radio or television
stations. Talk with the station manager, program director, or public service director. Brief them on Civil Air Patrol,
especially your unit's activity. ASK for their cooperation in scheduling CAP spots in their public service programming
(free air time). Send the call letters of the stations to HQ CAP-USAF/OIW, Maxwell AFB AL 36112. The spots will
be mailed to you so you may hand carry them to the stations. That's all there is to it. Your unit will be the beneficiary
of your actions.
OI
4. USE OF INFORMATION TOOLS. In today's world, Civil Air Patrol units cannot afford the luxury of just existing. You must tell your community how your unit contributes to the community. Don't operate in a vacuum. To
paraphrase a quotation: "No CAP unit is an island, entire of itself." "CAP Story" slide presentations are still available.
Send check or money order in amount of $3.00 to HQ CAP-USAF/OIW, Maxwell AFB AL 36112. This 30-slide set
is an excellent information tool. If you want support from the community, are interested in growing, want to spread
the word about CAP, this is the information tool that will help you get the job done. The three current CAP feature
f'rims and instructions on how to obtain them are listed in the May issue of Civil Air Patrol News, Bulletin Board section.

1. NATIONAL IO CONFERENCE. The National Information Officers Conference is scheduled for 1:00 pJn. (EST),
Friday, October 21, in connection with CAP's National Board meeting. The conference will be in the Tara Ballroom,
Suite 4, of the Marriott Motor Hotel in downtown Atlanta, Georgia, headquarters for the National Board meeting. Will
you be there? You will profit by attending this meeting-and all the other activities of the annual National Board
meeting. We'll be looking for you!

3 . THE INFORMATION PROGRAM IS TAKING ON MORE IMPORTANCE. The National Commander's column
,
in a recent issue of the Civil Air Patrol News expressed the importance of a recruiting program and an information
program working together as two vital organs of the life of the Civil Air Patrol organization. Starting with this issue,
a quarterly recruiting report will be published in the Civil Air Patrol News. Of course, retention is the other side of
the recruiting coin. Recruiting and retention go hand-in-hand.

Aircraft engines require fuel to operate; that's a fact! It is also a fact that
a pilot must ensure fuel on board is adequate for flight. To ignore either

these "tidbits of wisdom" gathered from the field.

Fuel gauges do not always tell the truth. Visual checks through tank
fillers are a good practice, but even they can deceive. If an aircraft is
parked on an incline, estimates based on observed fluid levels are inaccurate.
Fuel consumption rates and endurance or range are based on constant
power settings at constant altitudes, not on varied power settings during
flights which include multiple climbs and descents.
In some aircraft, fuel from auxiliary tanks cannot be obtained during
takeoff, climb, descent, or in turbulent conditions. Fuel flow to the engine may become reduced or prevented. In short, auxiliary tanks are
generally used in level flight only.
A cautious pilot always plans to have an adequate fuel reserve on
landing. A 30-minute minimum (computed at cruise power) is usually
reasonable provided:
a. The fuel is not divided among several tanks.
!:~:i:ii!iiii!iii~iiiiiii!ii~!iiiii!i!ii:i:i:i $!:
b. The reserve fuel is not contained in auxiliary tanks.
Fuel consumption, endurance, and range charts require a knowledge
of proper engine leaning techniques. Improper leaning in most light single
engine aircraft can result in one to three gallons per hour of fuel consumption more than the charts indicate.

Compare fuel tank gauge indications with visual observations during
preflight and with planned consumption (based on clock time and performance chart information) in flight. Regardless of planned consumption, do not~ ignore indications that less fuel is available.
Instructors and safety officers should ensure that assigned pilots understand fuel systems and requirements for the aircraft they fly.

fore our only immediate hope for reversing the negat~
growth pattern is to bring larger numbers of new peo~
into our program.
Along those lines, I would like to share some of
thoughts with you. How often haveyou heard the stat
ment, "Emphasize quality not quantity".., do not acc~
new people into our program if they don't have somethJ
to contribute."
This cliche is often used to rationalize lack
growth or to excuse a substandard cadet program.
St
superficial reasoning is too often accepted with(
questioning -- but why should we accept a concept
"Quality not Quantity" when we can choose "Quality
Quantity?"
The fallacy of attempting to apply a generality s~
as "quality not quantity" as membership eligib~lity c~
teria should be evident ... if retroactively applied,
could result in each of us being judged unfit, dependJ
upon who is maklng the judgment.

ERS AND RECRUITING MEMBERS...
C A S A D AY, C A P
There will be exceptions, but as a general rule, I
~i that anyone who meets the basic membership criteria
L has a genuine desire to become a member of our orga; a t i o n s h o u l d b e p r o v i d e d t h a t o p p o r t u n i t y,
We should stop kidding ourselves ... it's a "cop-out"
~n a commander blames his problems and shortcomings on
membership ... a primary prerequisite for leadership
the capability to accept responsibility for both the
d and the bad...for both the successes and failures.
The quality of our membership is not my greatest conn, in fact, I am and have always been extremely imssed with the high caliber of the individuals who
e up the membership of Civil Air Patrol. I feel that
quality of membership seeks its own level, and It
I never be any higher than the level of the quality
its leadership. In other words, quality leaders wlll
ract and retain quality members.
The false issue of quality versus quantity is an exle of the tendency to rationalize and justify rather
n accept the challenge and make an honest effort to
get the job done.
I ask that we all concentrate on the real and
important objectives of continuing our efforts
to upgrade the quality of CAP leadership and
increasing the emphasis on membership recruiting.

It was on Sept. 18, 1947, that the
active Air Force began with the
s w e a r i n g i n o f W. S t u a r t
Symington as the first secretary
of the Air Force. The late Gen.
Carl A. "Tooey" Spaatz was the
first Air Force chief of staff.
It has been said that the Air
Force was born on an airplane.
The bill establishing the Air
Force was brought to President
Harry S. Truman shortly after
noon on July 26, 1947, and it was
signed in his personal airplane,
"The Sacred Cow." The President was preparing to fly to the
bedside of his dying mother, and
in this emotionally charged atmosphere, he signed the National
Security Act of 1947.

the record America's Army Air
Corps set during World War II
when the B-17s, the B-24s, P-47s,
P-51s .and B-29s crippled the
enemy's war-making potential.
The importance of air power was
proven beyond a doubt, leading to
establishment of the Air Force as
a separate branch of the
military.
In reality, however, the U.S.
Air Force has its roots much
further back than 1947 or even
World War II. The U.S. Air
Force began, in actual fact, when
the U.S. Army accepted its first
a i r p l a n e f r o m t h e Wr i g h t
Brothers in August of 1909.
But even earlier than that,
there was a military interest in
the air and space above. In the
bitter days of the Civil War,
federal forces made limited use
of captive balloons for observation puposes and as an elevated
platform for spotting artillery
fire.
But, officially, the Air Force
began in 1947. The plane in which
President Truman signed the
historic legislation was a C-54
transport, a propeller-driven
plane with a top speed of 265
miles per hour, slow by today's
standards. A lot of history has
been packed into the 30 years
since that day and now supersonic jets are taken for granted.
During that 30 years, the Air
Force proved itself over and
over-- as in 1948 when it licked
the blockade of West Berlin with
a massive airlift. That was
followed by the Korean conflict
when the Air Force again proved
itself with its victories over Communist MIGs and its ability to
protect friendly ground forces.
Then there was Vietnam,
politically confusing and
nationally divisive. But here airpower was used with more versatility than ever before. And it
was an intensive air campaign
against North Vietnam which
sped up the end of the conflict
and the return of America's
prisoners of war.
Today, the Air Force is the
Department of Defense's
primary space agency. The Air
Force has been closely connected
with the space effort and today
looks to space as the wave of the
future for the peace of the world
and the benefit of everyone.
During the past 30 years, Air
Force research and development
has yielded enormous benefits
for business, industry and consumers at all levels. The byproducts of this research has
made life easier and better for
people around the world.
As the Air Force looks to its
fourth decade, it is with a pledge
to continue building for international peace, national security
and the advancement of human
rights and concerns at home and
abroad.
Members of Civil Air Patrol,
the Air Force's official auxiliary
now in its 36th year, salute the
Air Force on its 30th anniversary.

was provided for experts
representing various views to express themselves and to allow for
a question and answer session
The guest speakers were
followed by one to two-hour summary seminar during which each
seminar arrived at a position on

seminar leader role. The guest
speakers included recognized
aerospace experts from the airlines, aerospace industries
federal, state and local
governments, colleges and universities, and from private legal
and advisory groups.

Hawaii Wing Pilots Aid
National Guard Training
BARKING SANDS NAS,
Hawaii -- Civil Air Patrol pilots
from an Oahu Squadron, Hawaii
Wing, assisted the Hawaii Air
National Guard recently in its air
controller upgrading program.
The program was held here
during an entire week in June.
The Guard set up a mobile
radar unit by the Naval Air Station runway for GCA approaches,
and placed additional trainees in
the control tower under the
supervision of Naval and Federal
Aviation Administration personnel.
Seven CAP pilots, flying two L19s and a Cessna 172, contributed
much of the week's air activity
for the radar and tower controllers.
Some of the pilots roughed it by
remaining part of the week in
temporary barracks at the base,
while others commuted daily
over 70 miles of open sea between
the Islands of Kauai and Oahu, all
to give the eager Guard trainees
several hours a day of additional
practice. But even though the
GCA approaches helped sharpen
pilot instrument navigation, the
CAP pilots kept their VFR eyes
wide open, keeping in mind that
mistakes are always possible in a
training program.
At the completion of the exercise, the commander expressed
his gratitude to Civil Air Patrol
for its cooperation and requested
continued CAP participation in
the Guard's semi-annual controller training program.
For the benefit of all
members of Civil Air Patrol,
the statistics of search and
rescue activities throughout
the organization are shown
below.

Cadets Get Taste of Rescue Training

Rough Terrain Requires Careful Going.
KIRTLAND AFB, N.M.--Civil
Air Patrol cadets from 10 states
converged on New Mexico's
Pecos Wilderness recently for a
taste of Air Force pararescue
training.
Approximately37 cadets, ages
15 and older, arrived at Kirtland
to participate in CAP's
Pararescue Orientation Course
(PJOC), offered by the 1550th
Airerew Training and Test Wing
here. They were taught discipline
and wilderness awareness.
The course included 2 % days
in the classroom and a tour of
base facilities. The last four days
were spent in field training in the
Pecos.
The cadets wanted to be
treated as are regular Air Force
students of the program, and Air
Force TSgt. Dave Thompson, the
program organizer, obliged.
The cadets were required to
stay at the campsite unless
they were in class. They could
only leave the area after they
stood at attention and asked for
permission to leave. C-rations
made up their meals and a personal inspection was required
before breakfast.
Discipline was enforced with
cadets doing 50 to 100 pushups for
such infractions as standing on

"Yes. sir," instead of "Yes.
sergeant," and not observing
safety rules. The strict observance of rules encouraged the
cadets to work as a team. an instructor said.
"The teamwork paid off in the
field when the cadets worked on
the traverse line, which is strung
across a canyon and used to
transfer the rescuers and an injured party in a Stoke's
stretcher." the instructor explained.
"The cadet was required to
transfer across the canyon.
usually with the encouragement
of his friends to urge him along,"
he added.
The importance of keeping
pace while hiking in the
wilderness was emphasized by
Air Force SSgt. Martin Alvarez
before he took his group on a twomile hike. Air Force TSgt. Larry
Astin made sure his cadets knew
where they were by reading the
map. Then he taught them how to
use their compasses to find the
easiest route to their destination.
This is the first year that this
CAP special cadet activity has
been held.

Search Only Make-Believe
GREAT FALLS, Mont.--It was all makebelieve--the Montana Wing search for a "missing"
plane--but it was conducted with such precision
and seriousness as to make it a vividly realistic
enactment of a search for a plane downed in mountainous terrain.
The search and 'rescue test happened on a recent
weekend, with two Air Force officers, Col. James
O. Modisette Jr., Rocky Mountain Liaison Region
commander, and Lt. Col. Richard Y. Costain of the
same office on hand to evaluate efforts of Montana
CAP members.
ON CALL--Cadet Joseph A. Haynes of the Great Falls Comp.
Sq. checks his boots while waiting for an assignment.
Thirty-five senior members utilized 10 aircraft,
part of them privately owned, on the practice mission. Base of operations was the Great Falls International Airport. Assisting in operations were 21
cadets who provided a number of services, including carrying messages and refreshments, and
assisting on the flightline.
The "missing" aircraft supposedly took off
on Fridayafternoon from Great Falls and flew, y
b
way of Rogers Pass, to Lincoln, southwest ~f
Great Falls. From there, it was to fly north to
Benchmark and then back to Great Falls. The
script for the search says the plane never made it.
To make the search more realistic, Air Force
Capt. James D. Beggerly, Montana Wing liaison ofricer, generated search leads and tips such as would
come in from the public in case of a real search. As
clues came in, Capt. Harry E. Noel Jr. of the
Gallatin Comp. Sq., mission coordinator, dispatched planes on the search.
High winds and darkness Saturday evening halted
operations but the search was resumed on Sunday
morning. On the 17th sortie, a CAP plane picked up
an ELT (emergency locator transmitter) signal
north of Benchmark. The plane homed in on the
signal. First Lt. Ruth Edwards of the Missoula
Comp. Sq., flying as an observer, quickly spotted
the "downed plane" and the two relieved Air Force
sergeants who had planted the strips of old
parachute there to simulate a plane crash.
CAP pilots logged some 36 hours flying time on
the test and, according to 1st Lt. Joan Veal, the
mission information officer, the evaluators were
well satisfied with their performance.

H u n d r e d s A i d in Johnstown Flood
FROM COMBINED
I N F O R M AT I O N O F F I C E R
REPORTS
JOHNSTOWN, Penn. Civil
Air Patrol members--more than
700 of them--have again answered
the call, this time-when a flood
hit this Southwest Pennsylvania
city of 42,000 plus souls.
Floods are nothing new to
Johnstown. They began in May
1889. In that year, hundreds of
persons died when a dam collapsed upstream from the city, permitting a wall of water to sweep
away everyone and everything in
its path.
Floods hit again in 1936. When
that was over, many dams and
flood controls were built to make
sure that this city would never
again be flooded. The dams and
the controls were not enough.
In July of this year, a torrential
rain dumped 12 inches of water
on the area in seven hours. The
freak storm caused the.
Conemaugh River to rise more
than 22 feet above normal. This
resulted again in the collapse of a
dam north of Johnstown, again
sending millions of gallons of
water sweeping down the mountainside and through the city.
High water in some areas was
30 feet above flood level. Houses.
stores and factories were
crumpled and smashed and the
city--what was left of it--awoke
to the sight of floating cars.
ripped pavement and a wrecked
economy.
Flood damage was estimated
at approximately $200 million but
no one really knows what the
total is. At last count, more than
74 persons had lost their lives and
many more were unaccounted
for. Bodies of many victims,
washed downstream, may never
be found, reports indicated.
When the extent of the disaster
became known, Civil Air Patrol
members, along with personnel
'from other disaster relief agencies, converged on the area,
bringing help. The volunteers
found many urgent tasks
awaiting them.
Civil Air Patrol established a
base of operations at Cambria
County Airport and many
planeloads of supplies were flown
into that location. CAP also based its communications network
at this airport.
Drinking water was nonexistent in the city and most of
the food was contaminated.
Delivery of food and water via
four-wheel drive vehicles began.
Some CAP members performed
minor first aid as they dispensed
food to the downhearted
residents, many of whom had had
nothing to eat or drink for nearly
24 hours.
Ice for hospitals, morgues and
dairies was urgently needed.
Civil Air Patrol volunteers undertook the task of unloading and
transporting many tons of ice to
the devastated area.
Power was out in the city and
the surrounding area. Although
the hospitals in the vicinity had
backup electrical systems, some
of these failed due to flooding.
CAP furnished generators and
operators to keep these hospitals
functioning.
Cadet search and rescue teams
formed skirmish lines and
searched sections of the city
which local police believed to
contain casualties. These
searches included poking into
kneedeep mud and checking
damaged buildings. More than 1,200 homes were reportedly
destroyed.
Communications in the area
were destroyed for the most part
and, once again, CAP got the call
to help. Radio communications
were established between
several Red Cross disaster
shelters, the CAP base of
operations, and police headquarters. VHF-FM proved extremely useful as calls were
routed through a nearby
repeater.
Another task assigned Civil Air
Patrol was the transportation of
key personnel from other agencies. This was undertaken with
corporate fourwheel drive
vehicles and other memberowned vehicles.
Search and rescue operations
in the area were constantly
hampered by rumors that other
dams upstream had burst. Each
rumor had to be checked out.
GRIM SEARCH--CAP cadets search devastated highways and stream beds for signs of vehicles
or flood victims which might have been washed away by high water.
l i m l
"
In addition, tons and tons of
mud carried by the flood waters
left the whole area with a footdeep covering of slime. Cars and
trucks had been heaved on their
tops and sides and were blocking
streets and alleys. Trees lay
scattered around, torn out by
their roots. Whole sections of
four-lane highways had collapsed, blocking travel to and from
the area.
Many Pennsylvania Wing units
assisted in relief efforts during
the disaster~ even though their
members did not go to Johnstown
in person. They collected
blankets, clothing, food and
medical supplies and helped load
and transport them to the scene
of the disaster.
RELIEF EFFORT--Members of South Hills Comp. Sq. help load supplies for transport to
Johnstown.
Civil Air Patrol provided
transport for more than 250 tons
of supplies, including at least 40
tons of lime, more than two tons
of supplies, and in excess of 50
tons of ice, according to one
report.
A variety of corporate and
member-owned vehicles were
utilized in the four-day mission,
plus several corporate aircraft
used for reconnaissance and airlift.
Although CAP was just one of
the many organizations which
assisted in the emergency, much
credit goes to the cadets and
senior members who responded.
Hundreds were involved in one
way or another in the over-all effort.
It is not possible to list all units
which participated. However, the
following were among those involved: Group 50, Group 70,
Group 60, Group 1300, Group
1400, Squadron 602 and Squadron
613.

Cadet Encampment at Pease AFB,
PEASE AFB, N.H.--A Civil Air Patrol encampment, held
here in July, brought cadets from the New Hampshire and
Maine Wings for a busy week of activities at this Strategic
Air Command base in the southeast corner of New
Hampshire.
The cadets lived in Air Force dormitories, stood inspection,
toured base facilities including a nearby Coast Guard unit,
watched demonstrations, learned a lot and had a lot of fun.
The encampment was typical of the many in which CAP
cadets participate each year. On these pages is a selection of
photographs depicting the action at Pease during the week.
They illustrate some of the things many other CAP cadets did
this summer.

N o . 1 Unit Has Reci pe for Succe s s
Winning Similar
To Baking Cake
By LT. COL. RICHARD B. FRY
Squadron Commander
B A R B E R ' S P O I N T,
Hawaii--The Ewa Beach Cadet
Sq., located here, was selected as
the No. 1 cadet unit for 1976, the
Cadet Squadron of Distinction.
What does it take to be No. 17
Achieving this distinction is
something like following the
recipe for making a cake.
There are three main ingredients in earning the Cadet
Squadron of Distinction honor: 1.
Strong senior and cadet
leadership; 2, interested
teenagers: and, 3, a well-planned
organization.
Strong senior and cadet
leadership will result if a unified
goal is set that both can relate to.
The major goal of our squadron
is learning Aerospace Education
and glider and power flying.
A simple goal that is easy to
talk about, write about or
demonstrate draws interested
teenagers. Another good technique is to have your cadets bring a
friend, cousin or brother-sister to
a CAP meeting.
Instill the recruiting spirit into
them and your squadron will
reflect their mood. One final tip,
screen out the undesirables. One
misfit can create havoc in your
rank and file membership and
destroy all enthusiasm others
may have.
The third ingredient is a wellplanned organization. Ensure
that each cadet knows what hisher job is and how his-her job
relates to the over-all
organizational plan. Communicate with your cadets and
you won't be disappointed. As
squadron commander, I follow a
management technique called
"Participative Management"
which is simply: "Let the kids
have their say about running the
squadron." Believe me, it works.
Part of a well-planned
organization is the actual activities. During one month's
time, plan a variety of acOvities
to maintain cadets' interest. For
instance, glider flying on the first
Saturday, drilling-testing on the
next Saturday, power flying on
the third Saturday, and a beach
outing on the last Saturday. Why
a beach outing? It doesn't have to
be a beach outing. For those in
colder climates, a skiing outing
or a skating outing will be a great
substitute. The main purpose is
to be outdoors. This is the perfect
time for "rapping" with your
cadets.
Once a year, hold a "Class B"
encampment during the Christmas or summer vacation.
Schedule the encampment for approximately 10 days, preferably
on a military installation. This
will introduce your cadets to the
rigors of barracks life. spit and
polish of military uniforms and
duty watches.
Schedule helicopter orientation
and rappelling, the art of descending from cliffs using ropes and
Swiss seats.
These and other activities
maintain teenagers' interest. If
you have the interest of both
seniors and cadets, how can you
not have a winning combination?
Rappelling is easy

Members of Oregon Wing
Stage Civil Defense Test.
STORY AND PHOTOS
By CAPT. THOMAS TRAVER
MADRAS, Ore.--More than 120
members of the Oregon Wing,
representing 20 squadrons, participated recently in a Civil
Defense Effectiveness Exercise
here in the north central part of
the state.
The exercise, held in cooperation with local law enforcement
and emergency service
authorities, was coordinated by
the Air Force, the Oregon
Department of Emergency Services and the Federal Disaster
Assistance Administration. The
practice mission utilized some 20
CAP and private aircraft, supported by 15 ground rescue teams
and 18 emergency mobile communications units.
EMERGENCY COMMUNICATIONS--Cadets Kenneth N.
Reisner, left, and David P. Rader man communications
equipment inside Oregon Wing command van.
The test involved a situation
which is very likely in the West
Coast area--an earthquake.-In
this instance, a major aftershock
from a devastating earlier
'quake, registering 8.2 on the
Richter scale, supposedly bit the
north central portion of Oregon.
CAP units were called on to fly
damage evaluation missions as
well as to check major peaks,
Mt. Hood and Mt. Jefferson, for
seismic activity.
OFFICIAL IMPRESSED--Hamilton Perkins, left, sheriff of
Jefferson County, chats with Col. Bobbie Girard, Oregon
Wing commander. The impressed sheriff joined CAP that
day.
CAP personnel also flew air
evacuation for injured civilians
and air drops of emergency
medical supplies and helped
reestablish communications for
cut-off communities in the area.
Madras Airport was a bustle of
activity with CAP aircraft virtually covering the entire field.
Local authorities also had a
part in the staged disaster as the
Madras Fire Department was
called on to assist in an aircraft
accident involving four CAP
members. The department
responded in a little over four
minutes from the initial call,
with 10 personnel and three
pieces of equipment.
EFFORTS AT REVIVAL--Cadet Janneile L. Olinger plays
role of an air crash victim while Madras paramedics perform

Feedback Aids in Rewriting Manual
By MAJ. ROBERT MATTSON
HQ. CAP-USAF
I want to thank everyone who
has responded to my request for
feedback. You have shown me
that there are dedicated, concerned-and frustrated-members performing our
humanitarian mission. You have
given me some excellent
material to include in the revised
Emergency Services Manual and
some support for the ideas I have
expressed in this column. Also,
you brought up some problems
that must be addressed if we are
to provide our communities with
the best search and rescue
capability.
I am working on a complete
rewrite of all emergency service
manuals, and I appreciate the
input from those attending the
National Search and Rescue
School. With luck, the first portion of the Emergency Service
Manual will be available early in
1978. The new manual will be one
all-inclusive book divided into
sections for the commanders;
emergency service officers; mission coordinator and staff; aircrew; and data collection-ground
teams. To make this revision as
usable as possible, I need your
ideas on what to change and,
more important, the techniques
and procedures you have
developed which are effective.
The idea this month comes
Form 104 and using a random
search POD chart. Because of
space limitations, only two of his
six charts are reproduced here. I
am eager to hear your reactions
to and comments on Bob's
from Capt. Robert A. Gregoire of
the Pennsylvania Wing, Group
30, RD. 2, Box P-72, Carlisle,
Penn. 17013. Bob has been working on methods of simplifying the
paperwork required on a mission. He has his own home-brew
computer (IMASI micro, 61K
memory; two video terminals,
one teletype, one printer, one
dual-disk drive with 500K
storage, plus other odds and
ends) and has been very busy using it to solve SAR-related
problems. If anyone else is working a mini, get with Bob and
share, Share, SHARE! Good
luck !
Here is only one of Bob's ideas.
He is trying to simplify the
Probability of Detection (POD)
computations. His approach is to
use a few simple graphs rather
than the one table and correction
factors as listed in CAPM 50-15.
Additionally, he has presented an
alternate method of computing
cumulative POD. Using these
charts will give you the same
POD as calculations on the
debriefing side of the 1976 CAP

Supervised
Reduce Hazard Potential
To C u t I n j u r i e s , Loss
By FREDERICK K. CARTER
Lieutenant Colonel, USAF
Director of Safety
The pursuit of CAP objectives
involves diverse and often hazard o u s a c t i v i t i e s. T h e
REDUCTION of HAZARD
POTENTIAL is a MUST for each
CAP MEMBER, more especially
SUPERVISORS, to ensure that
injuries and loss of life and equipment do not overshadow "saves"
and "finds."
.
A peer through the looking
glass of member involvement in
CAP activity occasionally
reveals threatening events and
practices which may result in
tragedy. Chart No. 1 depicts
three major factors present in
these or any activities which
must be considered for the benefit of all concerned. These factors are:
b.-Judgment -- the capacity
the physical capacity of equipment, persons, or groups of
persons to perform as intended.
This capacity is subject to the
condition of equipment and the
health of person involved.
b. Judgement -- the capacity
to estimate correctly the effect
of all human, equipment, and environmental factors. This capability is subject to a person's
source of motivation, e.g., ego.
c. Mission (Job) Demand -- the"
task to be accomplished and the
associated conditions such as
time, weather, terrain, and
equipment. Mission demands are
subject to individual interpretation and are often a product ~f
ego or self-image.
Chart No. 1 also shows a training period which, hopefully,
SEPTEMBER 1977
CIVIL AIR PATROL NEWS
provides an opportunity for
developing judgment under
capable supervision. Following
the training period, the trainee
successfully meets job demands
within his/her capabilities and
those of the equipment in use.
Performance capability and
judgment must be constantly
developed and/or considered to
avoid exceeding the limits of
available resources while pursuing mission demands, either
actual or perceived. Chart No. 2
depicts a theoretical accident
where performance and judgment limitations were exceeded.
To i g n o r e t h e f a c t o f t h e
presence of risk in any mission is
to be unrealistic. CAP
M E M B E R S c a n greatly
R E D U C E R I S K through
E D U C AT I O N
and
COOPERATIVE EFFORT at all
levels of command. CAP seeks to
promote expertise within the individual and the organization.
Evaluation of the total situation
by each CAP member is invaluable as it develops the insight necessary to protect
ourselves and others from unnecessary loss.
There is always room for
closer, conscientious supervision
to close the gap between performance capability and judgment
in challenging endeavors. For
some, the closing of this gap adds
to the challenge; for others, it
may appear to detract from the
fun of certain activities. One
thing is certain, accidents are not
f u n n y. H o w Y O U S E E
YOURSELF through the
LOOKING GLASS can make the
difference. How about taking a
look, for yourself and CAP's
sake!

National Staff College Now History
Lessons Learned, Friends Will Long Remain
By CH. (COL.) LUTHER M.
SMITH
Chairman, National Chaplain
Committee
The National Staff College for
1977 is now history but the
lessons learned and the friends
made will long remain.
As the time came closer to go
to Maxwell AFB, there was no
clear picture of the curriculum,
the instructors, or what would be
expected of the student body.
I was assigned to Seminar I
which was made up of senior
CAP officers. Our seminar
leader was the commander of the
Oklahoma Wing, Col. Sam
Pierce. Our seminar included: a
wing commander, a deputy wing
commander, a wing information
officer, a group commander, a
unit operations officer, a PH.D.
who teaches at a state university,
a region chaplain, and the chairman of the National Chaplain
Committee.
Seminar I had two observers
representing the Coast Guard
Auxiliary--Commodore Tom
Cook and Capt. John Potts.
The principal surprise was the
high level of instruction, the-innovative methods of teaching and
the broad range of subjects.
Interpersonal and group com~aunication, leadership management, counseling techniques and
instructional methodology were
taught. The lecturers were on the
university level with a significant
number of doctorates among
them. The Air University furnished a majority of the-instructors in the theory and practice of
management and other technical
subjects. There were 32 hours of
lectures and 18 hours of Seminar
Projects.
On Saturday, the students of
the NSC were taken by bus to
Project X. This exercise is a
problem-solving field project
with 10 ingeniously designed settings to demonstrate group
problem-solving in a setting
where the mind and body are to
be used. Within 15 minutes, the
project was to be read, a solution
decided upon and carried out
within a varying number of
restrictions.
Among the lecturers was Dr.
Garber (Dr. Paul E. Garber), for
57 years a leader at the Smithso-
nian Institution and more lately
active in setting up National Air
and Space Museum in
Washington, D.C. Dr. Garber,
with slides and stories of his experiences and personal
friendship with many of the people who made aviation history,
made the hi§tory of the airplane
come alive.
He, with a group of five experts
in the field of aviation history,
picked 13 flying machines from
the world that made the most
significant impact on aviation
history. The list started with the
Wright Brothers' plane and
finished with the X-15. All who
listened were transported
through 70 years of man's
achievement in the air.
Dr. Richard Ovington of the
D i r e c t o r a t e o f Tr a i n i n g a t
Headquarters, CAP-USAF, ably
carried a major role in the entire
NSC program, serving as a lec-
turer, resource person, and
anchor man.
Dr. Mervin K. Strickler Jr..
chief of the Aviation Education
Programs Division of the
Federal Aviation Administration, using a slide presentation,
brought a new depth of understanding to the student body.
Words are inadequate to
d e s c r i b e p r o p e r ly t h e
challenge and genuine enjoyment
of the entire experience of the
NSC.
The NSC course of study has
major application to CAP activities but also to the civilian occupation of all who deal with
others on a daily basis.
The addresses of both Brig.
Gen. Thomas Casaday, CAP
national commander, and Brig.
Gen: Carl S. Miller, USAF, executive director of CAP, set the
tone of the NSC at the opening
ceremony. Their evaluation of
the level of the curriculum and
the experience of the faculty
were justified completely by the
day of graduation after 10 days.
Beginning with this issue, Civil Air Patrol News will publish each
month a list of Civil Air Patrol members who have died recently.
Notices of deaths should be sent to the Personnel Section of National
Headquarters in accordance with CAP Regulation 35-2, not to Civil
Air Patrol News. Listed are names, ranks, dates of death, and CAP
units.)

Weatherwax, were responsible
recently for ending a young
couple's frightening ordeal of being adrift at sea for 48 hours in a
164oot sailboat.
On June 20, the two women,
flying an L-19, joined another
CAP aircraft and two Coast
Guard rescue aircraft in
searching an area covering more
than 1,000 square miles. After
spending only two and a half
hours in the search area, the
CAP aircraft spotted the sailboat, a Hobie "Cat," drifting
helplessly between the Islands of
Lanai and Maul.
Using the L-19's public address
system, Capt. Weatherwax
reassured the lost sailors that
they were found and that Coast
Guard help was on the way, while
Capt. Tompkins kept the plane
circling the boat and radioing its
position to the Coast Guard rescue helicopter.
The pair had set out from the
Island of Maul for an overnight
sail to Lanai. Halfway to their
destination, bad weather
developed and the boat capsized.
They managed to right the craft,
but the mast broke in the
process. When they failed to
reach port at the appointed time,
friends notified the Coast Guard
Rescue Coordination Center and
the search began.
USCG Rear Adm. James
Moreau commended Capts.
Tompkins and Weatherwax for
their excellent performance.

PUBLISHED BY NATIONAL HEADQUARTERS
MAXWELL AIR FORCE BASE, ALABAMA
SEPTEMBER 1977
The National Headquarters Information Office is ready to help you with your information and recruiting programs.
That's what we are here for; let us hear from you.
A D M I N I S T R AT I O N
5. ATTENTION ALL COMMANDERS AND ADMINISTRATIVE OFFICERS! Screen fries for old forms and check
against the current CAPR 0-9. DO NOT use obsolete forms. Order current forms from HQ CAP/DAPE in accordance
with CAPR 5-4.

2. LACK OF RESPONSE AND ACTION! The importance of the information program in the operational conduct of
many CAP units still seems to take a back seat in too many CAP units. The general recruiting rate reflects this indifference to the information program. Only 151 units (of a possible 1,936) asked for tapes of CAP radio spots following
our announcements of their availability. That adds up to only 7.8 percent of CAP units responding to an opportunity
to promote CAP in their community with just a little effort. Over 65 percent of the CAP radio tapes had to be mailed
direct to radio stations selected by National Headquarters Information Office. This is not the preferred way of
obtaining "free air time" for CAP radio spots announcements. As we have commented numerous times in the Civil
Air Patrol News Bulletin Board section, "there just aren't enough hours in the day for broadcast stations to satisfy
every request they receive for free air time." Personal contact by CAP members is the best way of obtaining cooperation from a broadcast station to use CAP spots occasionally in the station's public service programming. We still have
20-second CAP film spots for television; and we will have a few of the new 30-second CAP frim spots left after filling
current requests. As we commented a number of times in the past, you should call on your local radio or television
stations. Talk with the station manager, program director, or public service director. Brief them on Civil Air Patrol,
especially your unit's activity. ASK for their cooperation in scheduling CAP spots in their public service programming
(free air time). Send the call letters of the stations to HQ CAP-USAF/OIW, Maxwell AFB AL 36112. The spots will
be mailed to you so you may hand carry them to the stations. That's all there is to it. Your unit will be the beneficiary
of your actions.
OI
4. USE OF INFORMATION TOOLS. In today's world, Civil Air Patrol units cannot afford the luxury of just existing. You must tell your community how your unit contributes to the community. Don't operate in a vacuum. To
paraphrase a quotation: "No CAP unit is an island, entire of itself." "CAP Story" slide presentations are still available.
Send check or money order in amount of $3.00 to HQ CAP-USAF/OIW, Maxwell AFB AL 36112. This 30-slide set
is an excellent information tool. If you want support from the community, are interested in growing, want to spread
the word about CAP, this is the information tool that will help you get the job done. The three current CAP feature
f'rims and instructions on how to obtain them are listed in the May issue of Civil Air Patrol News, Bulletin Board section.

1. NATIONAL IO CONFERENCE. The National Information Officers Conference is scheduled for 1:00 pJn. (EST),
Friday, October 21, in connection with CAP's National Board meeting. The conference will be in the Tara Ballroom,
Suite 4, of the Marriott Motor Hotel in downtown Atlanta, Georgia, headquarters for the National Board meeting. Will
you be there? You will profit by attending this meeting-and all the other activities of the annual National Board
meeting. We'll be looking for you!

3 . THE INFORMATION PROGRAM IS TAKING ON MORE IMPORTANCE. The National Commander's column
,
in a recent issue of the Civil Air Patrol News expressed the importance of a recruiting program and an information
program working together as two vital organs of the life of the Civil Air Patrol organization. Starting with this issue,
a quarterly recruiting report will be published in the Civil Air Patrol News. Of course, retention is the other side of
the recruiting coin. Recruiting and retention go hand-in-hand.

J. S. AIR FORCE -- THE AEROSPACE TEAM
Fuel gauges do not always tell the truth. Visual checks through tank
fillers are a good practice, but even they can deceive. If an aircraft is
parked on an incline, estimates based on observed fluid levels are inaccurate.
Fuel consumption rates and endurance or range are based on constant
power settings at constant altitudes, not on varied power settings during
flights which include multiple climbs and descents.
In some aircraft, fuel from auxiliary tanks cannot be obtained during
takeoff, climb, descent, or in turbulent conditions. Fuel flow to the engine may become reduced or prevented. In short, auxiliary tanks are
generally used in level flight only.
A cautious pilot always plans to have an adequate fuel reserve on
landing. A 30-minute minimum (computed at cruise power) is usually
reasonable provided:
a. The fuel is not divided among several tanks.
!:~:i:ii!iiii!iii~iiiiiii!ii~!iiiii!i!ii:i:i:i $!:
b. The reserve fuel is not contained in auxiliary tanks.
Fuel consumption, endurance, and range charts require a knowledge
of proper engine leaning techniques. Improper leaning in most light single
engine aircraft can result in one to three gallons per hour of fuel consumption more than the charts indicate.

Compare fuel tank gauge indications with visual observations during
preflight and with planned consumption (based on clock time and performance chart information) in flight. Regardless of planned consumption, do not~ ignore indications that less fuel is available.
Instructors and safety officers should ensure that assigned pilots understand fuel systems and requirements for the aircraft they fly.

fore our only immediate hope for reversing the negat~
growth pattern is to bring larger numbers of new peo~
into our program.
Along those lines, I would like to share some of
thoughts with you. How often haveyou heard the stat
ment, "Emphasize quality not quantity".., do not acc~
new people into our program if they don't have somethJ
to contribute."
This cliche is often used to rationalize lack
growth or to excuse a substandard cadet program.
St
superficial reasoning is too often accepted with(
questioning -- but why should we accept a concept
"Quality not Quantity" when we can choose "Quality
Quantity?"
The fallacy of attempting to apply a generality s~
as "quality not quantity" as membership eligib~lity c~
teria should be evident ... if retroactively applied,
could result in each of us being judged unfit, dependJ
upon who is maklng the judgment.

C A S A D AY, C A P
There will be exceptions, but as a general rule, I
~i that anyone who meets the basic membership criteria
L has a genuine desire to become a member of our orga; a t i o n s h o u l d b e p r o v i d e d t h a t o p p o r t u n i t y,
We should stop kidding ourselves ... it's a "cop-out"
~n a commander blames his problems and shortcomings on
membership ... a primary prerequisite for leadership
the capability to accept responsibility for both the
d and the bad...for both the successes and failures.
The quality of our membership is not my greatest conn, in fact, I am and have always been extremely imssed with the high caliber of the individuals who
e up the membership of Civil Air Patrol. I feel that
quality of membership seeks its own level, and It
I never be any higher than the level of the quality
its leadership. In other words, quality leaders wlll
ract and retain quality members.
The false issue of quality versus quantity is an exle of the tendency to rationalize and justify rather
n accept the challenge and make an honest effort to
get the job done.
I ask that we all concentrate on the real and
important objectives of continuing our efforts
to upgrade the quality of CAP leadership and
increasing the emphasis on membership recruiting.
