Civil Air Patrol is a Congressionally chartered, federally supported, non-profit corporation that serves as the official auxiliary of the U. S. Air Force. For an overall look at CAP, please review the Civil Air Patrol Factsheet.

Please review the Civil Air Patrol CAPabilities Handbook, a field operations guide that local, state and federal agencies can utilize to task CAP for incident response assistance. This guide identifies ways in which CAP can assist you and your agency in both routine operations as well as local and national emergency and humanitarian missions.

CAP provides an Annual Report to Congress recapping the past year’s activities. Please review the 2008 Civil Air Patrol Annual Report to Congress to see what the Civil Air Patrol has done for our nation in the past year.
