The following is the Commander's Safety Policy now in effect for the Alabama Wing Civil Air Patrol. Please distribute to all members of Alabama. Squadron Commanders please post on your Bulletin Boards. Safety is an integral part of everything we do in the CAP and much that we do in our personal lives. Safety awareness is a 24 hour a day job.
Good judgment is the cornerstone of any safety program.
Excellence in safety starts with individual commitment and discipline. All of these are leading causes of CAP accidents. Accident prevention is based on the philosophy that all accidents can be prevented. Effective supervision by Squadron Commanders includes attention to proper procedures in sufficient detail to prevent accidents. Squadron Commanders, with assistance from their safety officers, are the front line defense in accident prevention.
