Hampton Roads Composite Squadron, Civil Air Patrol

We give training to youth in areas of leadership, decision making, and education about aviation and space. Cadets also have the opportunity to receive training in the emergency services program. Cadets that progress through the program receive additional benefits if they choose to join the military. Service in CAP also provides youth an outstanding means of giving back to their community. The grea

t friendships they start in CAP will last them a life time. When cadets turn age 21 they can become senior members and continue their work in CAP. Key Benefits
•Outstanding Leadership Training
•Training in Decision Making
•Access to opportunities in aerospace, military, and other fields

Thinking about Joining? If you are a young man or woman interested in the cadet program feel free to join us at one of our meetings. We’d like you to visit us a few times before you sign (and pay membership fees) so you’re sure this is for you. You’ll be be assisted through our Great Start program and begin learning about CAP right away. For prospective new cadets, we will assist you with an uniform, but until you are properly outfitted, we ask only that you comply with Chesapeake Public Schools dress code. Then, once you join we’ll teach you how to wear the USAF-style CAP Cadet Uniform.
