Illinois Wing sent two aircraft and crews to Battle Creek, MI for Great Lakes Region’s emergency services competition, Gray Flag. Crews were tested on planning, paperwork, and search skills. Lt Col Tod Whitmore called it “intense but fun.” Results later today. #CivilAirPatrol

Armed Forces Day is the day we thank those who are currently serving in the military. Memorial Day is the day we celebrate (and memorialize) those who have died serving in the military. Veteran’s Day is the day we thank those who previously served in the military.

Rockford Composite Squadron welcomed Chief Master Sgt Steven Weber, Illinois Wing’s Senior Enlisted Leader. An Air Force veteran with 48 years in Civil Air Patrol, he shared insights on leadership and mentorship. #CivilAirPatrol

@CivilAirPatrol 1st Lt Pedro Cuerva, Capt Duc Le, and Maj Joe Long flew to Independence, KS, to get a brand‑new Cessna 172. Their route took them over Whiteman AFB—perfect timing to catch a B‑2 on final and grab photos. After a fuel stop, they picked up the new 172. #GoFlyCAP

They heard encouraging words from CDA Managing Director Duane Hayden, USAF (Ret.), who oversees Midway and O’Hare. A great day of learning and aviation exposure for our volunteers. #CivilAirPatrol #CAPCadet #AviationEducation

The group visited Southwest Airlines’ maintenance hangar and got an up‑close look at aircraft operations at the one‑square‑mile airport on Chicago’s South Side. #SouthwestAirlines #Aviation

Safety protocols exist for a reason. Usually several. Listening to the past is a good way to help the future. Stay safe!
