CELEBRATES 18th ANNIVERSARY

Civil Air Patrol lost 90 planes
and 26 pilots and observers. An.
other seven were seriously in
jured.
In other parts of the country
the volunteer members of the CAP
were performing other valuable
wartime tasks. A total of 1900
hours were flown on aircraft
warning missions for the Third
Fighter Command. On the South
ern Liaison Patrol along the U.S.
Mexican border CAP planes rack.
ed up $4,000 hours. Anti-aircraft
tracking missions accounted for
$4,000. In courier missions for
the Second Air Force the light
plane air force of the CAP log
ged 10000 flying hours airlifting
more than 100000 pounds of
critically needed cargo. Another
$500 hours were flown is courier
flights for the First Area Service
Command.
With the advent of peace a
grateful Congress granted char
ter to the CAP authorizing it to
act as a non-profit corporation
dedicated to maintaining U. S. air
supremacy and contributing its
services to the public welfare.
Congress also made it the civilian
auxiliary of the U. S. Air Force.
AS it celebrates its fourteenth
birthday this week the CAP num-
bers more than $4,000 members
in every state and territory each
devoted to maintaining faith with
those pioneers who founded Amer
ica's homefront air arm in the
black days of 1941.

VAST INSTRUCTION PROGRAM

Early this year the Army joined
in the program for reservists by
authorizing points for active
Army reservists performing similar
duty with the CAP. No figures
were available as yet on partici-
patton in this new program.
In addition to classroom train
ing for CAP cadets and non-CAP
more than $4,000 hours
of flight orientation were provid-
ed by the CAP during the six
month period. Flight orientation
is made available to young men
and women enrolled as CAP
cadets and is given only with par
entail approval. Orientation is
given in typical private aircraft
owned by CAP members, Air
Force liaison planes loaned to
CAP by the Air Force for this
purpose and in regular Air Force
planes including jets. Jet oien-
tation is provided for honor ca
dets at the summer encampments
held at more than 40 Air Force
bases.
For the first time this year the
jet indoctrination course given to
airmen and officers of the USAF
at Tyndall Air Force Base, Fla,
was opened to a select group of
16 CAP honor cadets chosen from
the more than $1,000.
The statistical report also indi-
Gated that 5S6 CAP cadets enter
ed the Armed Forces during the
first half of 1855. The Air Force
received the lions share of enlist
ments-371 The Navy got Is
and the Army 100.

their fourteenth anniversary, Dec

of the Air Rescue Service a hear
ty well done in helping" us fulfill
our mission-that others may

General DuBose pointed out
that during the 12-month period
ending June 80 this year the Air
Rescue Service asked CAPS help
on 168 search and rescue missions
in the continental United States
and Alaska. On AZ of the mis-
sions Air Rescue left the entire
job up to CAPS search crews.
These figures" said GenerS
DuBose, "are tangible evidence of
the great responsibility AIRS has
delegated to the CAP. During
this period these missions requir-
ed of the volunteer civilian pilots
and crews of CAP some 1850
flying hours under difficult condi-
tions. This amounted to more
than SO percent of the total fly
ing hours performed by AIRS and
all other participating agencies on
these missions.
without this assistance from
the CAP, it would be impossible

CAP HISTORY
GALLANT ONE
During World War ii Oper-
alton Lost Ninety Planes
and Twenty-six Pilots
ON $4,000 MISSIONS

Fourteen years ago this week
Fiorello H. LaGuardia, then di-
rector of the Office of Civilian De-
fense under the late President
Franklin d. Roosevelt, set his sig
nature to an order creating a
homefront air arm made up of
civilian pilots, lightplane owners
and other volunteers.
The year was 1941. Europe was
afiame with war. Poland, France
and Belgium had been overrun by
the Nazi hordes and England was
under attack from the air.
America had been girding
against the inevitable day she
would be forced into the conflict
but guns, planes and tanks still
were pitifully few. 1t had become
apparent to the owners and oper-
ators of the hundreds of little,
single-engine lightplanes that they
would have an important role to
play when war came. A handful
of their leaders including such
men as the late Guy P. Gannett,
owner of the Gannett newspapers,
Gill Robb Wilson, then aviation
editor of the New York Herald
Tribune and now editor and pub
Usher Of Flying Magazine; and
the late Earle l.. Johnson, prom
inent Clevelander, met with Gen.
eral H. H. Hap" Arnold, chief
of the Army Air Forces, offering
the services of volunteer, civil
ian organization known as the
Civil Air Patrol. The offer was
accepted. President Roosevelt's
Executive Order borught the CAP
into being just six days before
Pearl Harbor.
A scant three months later a
group of these civilian volunteers
transplanted from almost every
Smyrna times., 1955-11-24

state in the union arrived at At
lantic City, N. J., and began max
ing aviation history. Na1 u
boats skulking within sight of our
Atlantic and Gulf coasts were
sinking ships right and left.
Neither the Army nor the Navy
had enough planes for anti-sub-
marine patrol. CAP asked for
and got the job of ranging far
out to sea in their little putt-putt
planes hunting the killers, drop
ping bombs against some, pin
pointing others by radio for des-
troyers, sub chasers and the few
land-based bombers available.
Many such bases were estab-
lished from Maine to Texas dur
ing the early months of World
War II. Hundreds of CAP MEM
bers flew from these bases. Twen-
ty-six of them made their last
flights from these bases trading
the clean, blue sky for the wat
ery grave the sea held constantly
open to receive them.
From March 5, 1912 through
August 81, 1943--the period of
coastal patrol operations-these
amateur warriors logged 244, 800
flying hours on $4,000 missions.
They officially are credited with
damaging or destroying two ene-
my submarines and with bombing
80. They spotted another 173 u
boats and directed surface ships
and bombers against them. They
located and reported 81 vessels in
distress and 1863 survivors of ship
sinkings.
In these operations the infant
Smyrna times., 1955-11-24

More than 100000 man-hours
of aviation instruction were pro-
vided to Civil Air Patrol cadets
and other American teen-agers en-
gagged in Civil Air Patrol aviation
education programs during the
first six months of 1855, accord
ing to the semi-annual statistical
report released by CAP National
Headquarters in Washington.
More than $1,000 CAP cadets
and some 4,110 non-CAP men,
bers took part in this training
conducted in more than $500 Civil
Air Patrol units across the ma
tion, in the Commonwealth of
Puerto Rico, the District of Co.
1umbia and the territories of Ha-
waii and Alaska. The non-CAP
members were young men and
women enrolled in the Coordin-
ated CAP-High School Aviation
Education Program carried as an
elective in 1856 high schools. Par
ficipation in the high school
courses alone amounted to 49,615
classroom hours.
Some 42,700 classroom hours of
instruction in aviation subjects,
orientation in Air Force subjects
and instruction in military drill
and discipline were provided the
CAP cadets during their weekly
meetings and training sessions.
Augmenting the hundreds of quail
flied CAP instructors supervising
this training were 1862 members of
the Air Force and Navy reserve

same amount of emergency and
rescue coverage. We also would
be seriously hampered in fulfilling
our many other commitments
which include global air rescue as
well as hundreds of preventative
rescue or intercept missions wher-
ever our military or civilian air.
planes operate"
The Air Rescue commander
went on to point out that "this
volunteer public service rendered
by the Civil Air Patrol not only
provides wider air search and res
cue to Americas thousands of air
travellers, private pilots and pas
sengers and military fight crews,
but at the same time saves the
American taxpayer hundreds of
thousands of dollars each year
if we had to budget for the per-
sonnel and planes that CAP re-
presents"
1t has been estimated that the
standby force of 10000 second
lieutenant-pilots represented by
the CAP would cost the federal
government $46,OO0,OOO a year for
base pay and flying pay alone.
Instead volunteer members of the
CAP pay annual membership as
sessments for the privilege of be-
ing members of this team in addi-
Smyrna times., 1955-11-24

ton to buying their own uniforms
and paying their own way. The
only cost the taxpayer bears in
connection with these search and
rescue missions is the actual cost
of the gasoline and oil used in
CAPS planes.
Currently, CAP can put some
$500 planes into the air nation
wide as maximum effort. These
include 4,S00 owned by CAP men,
bers and by CAP units as well as
more than 500 small military liai-
son planes loaned to CAP by the
Air Force.
