r . Using appropriated funds to purchase light aircraft, vehi-cles, communications equipment, and other mission-relatedequipment, to renovate DOD excess aircraft and other missionequipment, and to furnish cadet uniforms.g. Authorized the Air Fora to ar range for the use of otherfederal agencies' services and facilities with the consent of thoseagencies.

AIR FORCE SUPPORTAir Force support of Civil Air Patrol, authorized by theoriginal CAP Supply Bill in 1948, continues to be of majorimportance to the organization. A primary element of thatsupport was the establishment and manning ofAir Force liaisonoffices at national, regional, and state levels of Civil Air Patrol.The interface of the Air Force liaison structure and Civil AirPatrol begins at the national level between Headquarters, CAP-USAF and National Headquarters, CiviIAir Patrol. The bridgebetween the Air Force and Civil Air Patrol exists through the

CAP-USAF commander who performs duties in a dual status.As a private citizen, the commander acts as the executivedirector of the Civil Air Patrol Corporation. The executivedirector is charged under the CAP Constitution and Bylawswith responsibility to administer tbe programs of Civil AirPatrol; authority includes issuing such rules, regulations, andother directives as approved by the National Board and theNational Executive Committee for the conduct of the affairs ofCivil Air Patrol.

All 263 Air Force employees assigned to Headquarters,CAP-USAF and the 8 region and 52 wing liaison offices arecharged with supporting the Civil Air Patrol.The fun-time CAP-USAF staff is supported by Air ForceReserve personnel functioning through the CAP ReserveAssistance Program. Reservists provide advice and assistance in

the conduct of CAP programs during inactive-duty training andon a limited number of temporary active-duty tours. In FY90,the 444 reservists assigned to the program served 4,250 man-days in support of Civil Air Patrol and spent 64,621 hours ofnonpaid, points-only time providing advice and assistance.Under the authorization of the 1984 congressional amend-ment to the CAP Supply Bill the FY90 Appropriation Billprovided approximately $3.7 million in Air Force funds for thepurchase of equipment for Civil Air Patrol. This brought thecumulative allocation under that authorization to approxi-mately $20 million during the past five fiscal years. (When theone-time 1987 fiscal year appropriation Q C $7 million in AirForce monies under the Anti-Drug Abuse Act of 1986 isincluded, tbe total allocated in support of Civil Air Patrol wasapproximately $27 million during the past five fiscal years.)FY90 funds were spent to purchase 26 used, late-model, single-engine aircraft and to partially rehabilitate 350 aircraft cur-rently in the CAP-owned fleet. The funds were also used topurchase 53 new vehicles through GSA and provide rehabilita-tionIor other vehicles currently in the CAP-owned inventory.Remaining Air Force funds were used for the purchase 600pieces of equipment to upgrade the CAP National Communica-tions Network and to purchase 4,000 uniforms for CAP cadets.
