Cadet Programs
CAP Cadets are potential Airmen Demonstrated interest in aerospace,
cyber, UAS & STEM Demonstrated interest in military service Academically, morally and physically
eligible for service Often untapped source for recruiters

Cadet Programs
Cadets’ STEM education perpetuates U.S. aerospace supremacy Career explorations / job shadowing Cyber as new emphasis
Cadets prompt Airmen to re-blue themselves By modeling Core Values for cadets, Airmen
re-internalize the Core Values Airman / Cadet interactions are a positive and
fun way to refresh commitments to the Core Values

Investing in the Future
What do a former CSAF, an Air Force Thunderbird, an astronaut and many other civic, industry and military leaders have in common? They were all CAP cadets.
Col Eric A. Boe, USAF• NASA Astronaut
• Piloted Space Shuttle Endeavour (Nov 2008)
• Piloted the final mission of Discovery in 2011
Gen Mike Ryan, USAF• Former CSAF
Maj Kim Campbell, USAF• Former USAF Academy cadet wing commander
• Safely landed heavily damaged A-10 after sustaining hostile fire over Iraq
Lt Col Nicole Malachowski, USAF• Former USAF Academy cadet glider and instructor pilot• First female U.S. Air Force Thunderbirds pilot

Impact to Air Force
$155M/yr in volunteer manpower
1/10 the cost of contract support, and 1/40 the cost of organic DoD assets
Robust communications capability
Appropriate resource for the mission; preserves AF warfighting assets
I n t e g r i t y - S e r v i c e - E x c e l l e n c e
Performs key missions for Air Force, DOD and other Federal agencies as the official Air Force Auxiliary Also supports states, communities, public service non-profits and others Low cost force multiplier; direct AF cost avoidance; appropriate resource for
the mission Maintains highly qualified aircrews, incident command staff, ground teams
and other mission personnel Employs advanced technologies and multipurpose aircraft Capable of sustained volunteer operations with units across the nation
Maintains an Air Force Auxiliary presence nationwide Extends the USAF presence into areas without DOD installations Builds better citizens and future leaders through service to their country
