Default Anyone have kids or dh in CAP?

My oldest just joined CAP. They are working on getting my dh to be a pilot for them over there. Just wondering if anyone else has kids or a dh involved in it.

My oldest was in it for two years back when he was in highschool. He really enjoyed it.

My DH was in CAP during his high school years. He enjoyed it and it helped him get into the Air Force Academy, which eventually led to a military pilot slot. A very good investment!

No, after 9/11 and all the mess that followed, he decided against going into aviation as a career. He just flies for fun now when he can.

Thanks, I am hoping not to end up with all my kids being pilots. Don't get me wrong, I love mine but would hate to see them struggle like my dh has through his life. I missed 13 years of it but his stories remind me of that movie with Tom Hanks where he is stuck in the airport eating crackers and ketchup. LOL! Not what a mom wants for her kids. I am pretty sure my youngest will be a pilot or a Wiggle.

No they are local chapters in the community if you go to Civil Air Patrol Online you should be able to look up the group for your area.
