Common Questions
  • Will my child be obligated to join the military?
    No, CAP is the civilian auxiliary of the USAF and
    supports the Air Force through non-combat
    missions. No one in CAP is ever deployed or
    obligated to join the military.
  • Will I have to wear a uniform? Cadets must wear
    the blue Air Force style uniform. Officers may
    choose to wear any of the CAP authorized
    uniforms. There is no obligation to wear a
    uniform unless the member flies in a CAP aircraft
    or participates in a mission.
  • What is the time commitment? You do get out of
    CAP what you put into it. Most squadrons meet
    once a week however, there are activities,
    training exercises and missions that enhance your
    experience with CAP. The more involved you are,
    the more you will enjoy your CAP membership!
