Mission: What do we do?

	The Civil Air Patrol has, since its formation, assisted in emergencies, national and local, and CAP volunteers have provided their varied services in order to promote the welfare of residents.
Civil Air Patrol members help find missing persons and can get qualified for basic First Aid to help injured victims. They perform line searchs to find missing aircraft or persons and help clean up and provide humanitarian support after storms ravage cities and towns.
