Civil
Air Patrol, America’s Air Force Auxiliary, has the vision of building
the Nation’s finest force of citizen volunteers — performing Missions
for America.
Leadership Structure As part of the Defense Authorization Act of 2000, a Board of Governors was created to serve as Civil Air Patrol’s governing body. The Board has 11 members, including representatives of CAP, the U.S. Air Force and civilians involved in education, aviation and emergency management. Both the volunteer national commander and national vice-commander always serve on the CAP Board of Governors. The Board meets once each quarter. CAP
also has an active National Board, which includes the national
commander and national vice-commander, the eight region commanders, the
52 wing commanders, and the senior Air Force advisor. Also part of the
National Board are key national CAP officers, including the national
chief of staff, the national finance officer, the national legal
officer, the national controller, the national inspector general and
the chief of chaplain services. A smaller body within the National
Board is the National Executive Committee. That committee makes
recommendations for action to the National Board. The Organization Nonprofit, 501(c)(3)
