About Civil Air Patrol
Civil Air Patrol was founded in December 1941, one week before
the Japanese attack on Pearl Harbor, by more than 150,000 citizens who were
concerned about the defense of America's coastline. Under the jurisdiction of
the Army Air Forces, CAP pilots flew more than one-half million hours, were
credited with sinking two enemy submarines and rescued hundreds of crash
survivors during World War II.
On July 1, 1946, President Harry Truman
established CAP as a federally chartered benevolent civilian corporation, and
Congress passed Public Law 557 on May 26, 1948, making CAP the auxiliary of the
new U.S. Air Force. CAP was charged with three primary missions – aerospace
education, cadet programs and emergency services.
