The Salute. Coming to attention when an officer enters a room. Shaking hands when meeting someone. These are all examples of customs and courtesies. They are small, but important expressions of politeness and mutual respect. Customs and courtesies are found throughout society at large, but Air Force-style customs and courtesies are especially important in Civil Air Patrol because they re-enforce the Core Values and bring us closer to our parent service — the U.S. Air Force.

The new CAP Pamphlet 151 serves as a guide and explains  ”How & Why CAP Practices Air Force-Style Customs & Courtesies.” Also note the photo on Page 15, which is two of our own from NatCap Wing. Click here to download CAPP 151.
