Hey man, I am joining next week so I was wondering if you had any tips for your first couple months. I want to be an Air Force pilot. I want to become an officer through The Academy. Sorry to bother you but it would be great if you would respond. God Bless
Hi! Super late, thanks for the video it helped a lot!! Also I wanted to ask whether rifles are use during drill marches, if used do cadets use them? I was just wondering as I was a bit keen on safety. Thanks!!
I am a C/TSGT, You are supposed to usually tape over your name I saw redberry doing it, I belive it is n the regs, Aswell your sleeves arenʻt rolled properly, Good Luck in Civil Air Patrol, C/TSGT Unkown, Also say hello to medina county C/COL Begin
Unbutton that top button, its supposed to be unbuttoned. Edit: Are you going to USAFA? If so what year do you graduate HS we might be in the same class
I know I am REALLY late to this but I’m going to join the Civil Air Patrol before the close of this year. So I was wondering how the first three meetings go? Do I just call and go? Where do my parents go, like do they just sit in a corner or something? I would like a bit more information on this, as it would be INCREDIBLY helpful. Thanks so much! (By the way, the video is very informative and helpful, thanks)
The first three meetings are like a free trial, At first you get to meet everyone and start helping out, your parents will most likely be talking with the senior members and getting all the paperwork done. Also if you have any questions about joining, the first three days are the best to ask
@@hammydoesstuffhi, I see that you have a Michigan logo on your profile picture, are you joining a squadron in the Michigan wing? I’m at willow run composite squadron
@@joshbaker2398Do you know if CAP has a location at Alpena Airport? I see Cessna 172's and Cessna 182's with civil air patrol taking off and landing there but never taxiing.
The neck tie you show in 4:09 is for the women’s uniform only you need to do your research and not waste money And you need to unbutton the top button on your blouse
Yo kinda late and random question but i have long curly hair but always keep it detained, will that be a problem there? I always tie it up but is wearing a camouflaged hat required when doing drills and will they tell me to cut it off lol
There are some uniform regulations about long hair but I’m sure if you can tie it up then it should be good. Yes wearing a hat is required when outside
Great question, The Civil Air Patrol wears military uniforms for tradition, authority, recognition, and to reinforce discipline and preparedness among members.
@@aviationcatF22 what does official auxiliary mean? If we go to war your all getting drafted to the Air Force? It is a civil organization right, not military? Forgive my skepticism, it’s just completely unfamiliar to me.
Correct it is a civil organization, We won’t be drafted for war, one of our missions is search and rescue of missing planes. If I’m correct civil air patrol helped find the missing F-35 lest September
@@LukeKirk1113Civil air patrol also helped during 9/11 by removing debris and taking pictures of the twin towers when they collapsed (some of the only planes allowed in the sky)
Hello cadet, I’m sure by now you know more about the rules and regulations of CAP but you are not allowed to post videos or pictures on the Internet in the CAP uniform, without proper authorization from your group/wing. Also, your top button should be unbuttoned and your cuffs tightened. -C/CMSGT
Not that deep everyone makes instagram posts from encampment, nca’s, promtioms, etc. It’s one of those regulations nobody really cares about unless it’s very negative or false information. -C/1st Lt.

@@aviationcatF22 so like if it’s tied up do you think putting the hat on would be a problem
I believe the regulation is 2 inches In bulk for males, and it can’t touch the ears.
@@xytq4692 dang the cadet units around my area are pretty ghetto so it didn’t work out for me unfortunately
I saw you at encampment lol
Cadet, please make sure your Uniform is in regulation before making an online appearance.
Yeah I just watched back the video and realized the uniform is wrong. That’s the first day since I got the uniform
@@aviationcatF22 Its all good, my First Sgt. Senses are always tingling so ofcourse I notice lol
I could tell, you gave me the chills 🤣
What’s your rank now
Senior Airman
Do I have to read the Spacecraft, cyber security, rockets, space environment books?
Yes you have to complete a open book quiz on the topic that you chose to read.
There is different things you need to do to get a promotion one of them is reading the books
Also what rank are you right now?
Tech sergeant
@@aviationcatF22 Is that good progression for time being?
@Thatonewrteameloncat I spent a bit to long on the wright brothers test so I could of been a master sergeant, probably
@@aviationcatF22 oh okay
@@aviationcatF22 so I’m thinking about joining the CAP Texas wing Waco squadron is there anything I should know before going to the first meeting?
Why do you wear military uniforms? Never understood that.
Great question, The Civil Air Patrol wears military uniforms for tradition, authority, recognition, and to reinforce discipline and preparedness among members.
Because we are a official auxiliary, the Air Force
@@aviationcatF22 what does official auxiliary mean? If we go to war your all getting drafted to the Air Force? It is a civil organization right, not military?

brother it is not that big of a deal 😭
It's not that big of a deal, if anything it is good that this cadet is posting this because it is a recruitment effort.
