On Tuesday morning, 26 November, family and friends filled the Good Shepherd Funeral
Home in Rome, Georgia to mourn the passing and celebrate the life of former Georgia Wing
Commander Colonel Tonya Boylan. The room was packed to capacity. It was filled with
family, friends, representatives from all levels of CAP, and a multitude of CAP members who
have worked with Tonya in one capacity or another. It was quite apparent that all were
saddened by her sudden and unexpected passing.
Before the ceremony, an ongoing video displayed a multitude of photos which shared
Tonyas love of life with all who were there.
The ceremony began and ended with a CAP Honor Guard which included C/CMSgt
Tommy Boylan, Tonya and Phils youngest son. During the ceremony, he both presented
and removed the urn. He also placed a folded American flag in front of the urn.
Rev. Brad Prater, aka Captain Prater in CAP, respectfully led the service. He shared the
thought that in a time of sadness, the tendency is to mourn; however, that is only a part of
the picture. He encouraged all to honor the memory of Tonya by remembering her many
accomplishments and contributions to life. He encouraged all to celebrate Tonyas life.
Toward the conclusion of the service, members of the family shared the love they had for
Tonya. The tidbits of Tonyas life shared by her sister (Tami Litton), by Phils brother
(David Boylan), by Tonya and Phils eldest son (Phillip Adam Boylan), and by her husband
(Phil Boylan) brought great honor to Tonya and helped all to understand how much Tonya
was loved and will be missed.
The music which was played during the ceremony was selected from Celtic music which
Tonya loved.
The loving ceremony dedicated to Tonya Boylan was extremely moving. It was definitely a
tribute to one who touched so many through her love of family, friends, and the Civil Air
Patrol. Her desire to serve the community, state, and nation was extremely honorable and will
be long remembered.

15 December will be a special day for Lt Col Jim Card. That was the day, 55 years ago, that C/AB Card joined
CAP, and THROUGHOUT HIS 55 YEARS I* CAP, HE *EVER HAD A BREAK I* HIS CIVIL AIR
PATROL MEMBERSHIP.
On the 15th of December, 1958, C/AB Jim Card joined the Auburn Composite Squadron in the Maine Wing. He
was 15 years old and a Boy Scout. A friend from school encouraged him to attend, and Jim quickly decided to stay
because It was a challenge not found elsewhere.
In about two years, he reached the highest grade offered at that time. He received the General Billy Mitchell
Award and became a C/2Lt. His years as a Cadet included service as a Cadet Commander, Executive Officer, and
Flight Commander, in addition to his participation in three Summer Encampments which were held at Loring AFB.
In October of 1963, as a Senior Member at the Mc Dill Cadet Squadron in the Florida Wing, he entered the United
States Air Force. In the service, he was an Aircraft Mechanic who worked himself up to the grade of Master
Sergeant. Even then, he was more content doing the work, rather than standing in the limelight as the boss. After
twenty years of service, in 1983, MSgt Card retired from the USAF.
Throughout the years, he has always excelled in his service to Civil Air Patrol in its Missions for America. In many
ways, Lt Col Card is an unsung hero. He prefers to serve silently, a practice which is based on his deeply religious
beliefs. Throughout the years, Lt Col Card always strives to do his best in whatever opportunity he has to be of
service. He has a strong belief that both civilians and people with military backgrounds are valuable assets in
CAPs Missions for America, as long as their egos do not get in the way.
Throughout his 55 years in CAP, Lt Col Cards accomplishments are many.
He has served in the following Wings: Maine, Florida, California, New York, South Carolina, and in the Overseas
Wing in England. In addition, he has served actively with the Georgia Wing since 1992.
At Squadron Level, he has served a total of 16 years in the following capacities: Leadership Officer (4 years),
Deputy Commander for Cadets (6 years), Activities Officer (3 years), Testing Officer (8 years) and Squadron
Commander (7 years).
At Wing Level, he has served a total of 28 years. He has served in the following capacities at Wing Level:
Licensing Officer, Assistant IG, Assistant Director of Communications, and Director of Communications.
In addition to his many other accomplishments, Lt Col Card has served in 53 Encampments. At five
different Encampments, he served as the Encampment Commander, and throughout the years, he has served in
every capacity with the exception of Chaplain and Medical Officer.
When asked what special advice he would like to pass on to others, he said Set your goals in levels. Its like
climbing a mountain. Climb the first hill, then rest. Then continue on. If you set your goal too far, you will lose
interest. Above all, maintain your standards, and always strive for the best. Stick it out and always do your best to
support this great organization, the Civil Air Patrol.

On Saturday, 9 November 2013, a beautiful Georgia Fall day, Cadets and Senior Officers from the Marietta Air
Museum Cadet Squadron, and Lt Col Jim Card, GAWG Assistant Director of Communications, discovered the
excitement of visiting the incredible Robins AFB Aviation Museum. Included in the group were two former Air
Force aircraft mechanics who provided some real personal context to the aircraft and other displays which are at
the museum.
The museum has an incredible array of aircraft from military, civilian and foreign sources. It provides an excellent
Aerospace Education experience. The array is comprised of the earliest of aircraft, WWI and WWII aircraft, as
well as aircraft through the jet age which incorporates today's aircraft and aviation pioneers, including the Georgia
Aviation Hall of Fame inductees, like Atlanta's own Pat Epps. It even includes aircraft like the SR-71, which was
formerly flown by AF pilots who qualified as legitimate astronauts.
A special treat for the GA454 Commander was the F-4 MacDonald-Douglas Phantom which was the first model
aircraft he built; however, the aircraft was even more special to Lt Col Jim Card. In addition to his celebration on
15 December of 55 years of service in CAP, Lt Col Card was excited to be reunited with the very F-4 on which he
served as Crew Chief in Viet Nam.
The trip to Robins from Marietta was long, and in most cases, a long drive can be so boring that many people fall
asleep along the way. This did not happen with our Cadets. They rose to the challenge! During the trip, they
memorized the entire Phonetic Alphabet, and practiced their new-found skills by phonetically spelling out the
letters on cars' license plates, as well as on road signs along the way.
Since there were two vehicles used for the trip, a CAP van and a private vehicle, an additional challenge for the
trip was provided with the introduction of the protocol, requirements, and nuances of CAP Radio Communications.
Under the supervision of the GAWG Assistant Director of Communications, the Cadets communicated between
the two vehicles by ISR. The Cadets learned and practiced routine CAP radio procedure protocol, nomenclature
and pro-words. By the time we arrived at the museum, our newest cadet, C/AB Whitney Reuschel, a member for
only 48 hours at the time, proved she is a "strack cadet" by not only mastering the phonetic alphabet but also
becoming instantly proficient at CAP radio procedures. Her confidence while broadcasting was immediately
obvious. She displayed more confidence than many senior members with 20 years of membership, a fact noticed
by the Squadron Commander (with 33 years experience), the Deputy Commander (with 18 years experience), and
the GAWG Assistant Director of Communications (a member for 55 years).
There were many learning opportunities during this Squadron activity, not to mention the absolute fun that was had
by all. However, the biggest lesson learned was "Don't miss ANY Squadron activities!" There is ALWAYS
something to be gained. Be sure to ask the Squadron members who are currently on the Cold Weather Field
Training Exercise (FTX) when they arrive home. There is no doubt that they will tell you that you should attend
EVERY meeting and training event possible.
For the New Year, make this one of your New Year's Resolutions: "I will attend EVERY CAP meeting and
training opportunity possible because that will make me a better CAP member, and a better United States citizen!"

On November 15 and 16, members of the Marietta Air Museum Cadet Squadron participated in
basic ground team training. We could not have asked for a better FTX (field training exercise)!
1. The rain stopped by the time we got to the area we would be working in on Friday night.
2. The bright full moon came out and gave us the luxury of minimal lights during our hike.
3. We also had the privilege of watching a mountain fog roll in.
4. On Saturday, the team practiced searching for an ELT at an actual airport.
5. We concluded the day by using search line and hasty search skills during a simulated
aircraft and missing person search.
6. Another benefit for those who participated is that they have fulfilled the requirement to
complete a cold weather overnight FTX before going to the annual Frostbite exercise.
7. The best part of the training is that several of our cadets are well on their way to becoming
fully qualified ground team members!

On the 22nd of November, we reflected upon the event that happened 50 years ago in Dallas, Texas. Those of us
who were alive then know EXACTLY where we were when we first heard about the shooting of President
Kennedy. Yet, even that episode would not have been possible had it not been for the service and sacrifice of
veterans in every generation of Americans.
Please take a few moments to consider our countrys heroes through the centuries.
Our Squadron, the Marietta Air Museum Cadet Squadron, has chosen to honor the deceased heroes that have been
interred at the National Cemetery in Canton, GA, and by representation, all of the countrys veterans regardless of
what continent they are buried on. To understand how we will be honoring them, please visit:
Wreaths Across America: http://waa.convio.net/site/TR? Fr_id=1454&pg+entry#UoJZneKnewE.
There you can read about the goals of Remember, Honor, Teach, as well as visit many of its videos to gain or
regain an understanding of the honor these heroes deserve.
And IF you feel led to honor them yourselves, the members of GA454 would appreciate your support of this effort
and the Squadrons efforts by sponsoring one of the wreaths we will be placing on Saturday, 14 December 2013.
There are 7,000+ veterans now buried at this cemetery. Last year when we participated, there were only 6,000. It
is unfathomable that weve lost 1,000 or more this past year just in this one cemetery, and there are hundreds of
veterans cemeteries around the world. Nearly all of the World War II veterans have now passed. In fact, of the
flight crew members that flew the B-25s in Jimmy Doolittles raid of Tokyo, only four remain. In 1972, while I
was at the United States Air Force Academy as a freshman, more than half of them were still alive. I am
tremendously saddened by their demise.
You can honor them, their compatriots, and support this effort and the Squadron by sponsoring one wreath that we
can place on a heros headstone. In order to support this cause, please go to:
http://waa.convio.net/site/TR/*ationalWreathsAcrossAmericaDay/General?team_id=1454#.UoJZZ3KnemF
I invite you to participate by personally attending and placing a wreath on a headstone, or several, saying a prayer
of thanksgiving for the hero and a prayer of blessing upon his/her family members who now miss him/her. No
matter where you are, there is an opportunity for you to personally honor them. Visit the first link above, and click
on Locations to find the closest or most meaningful location near you.
Please feel free to share this information with every family member, friend, acquaintance and comrade that you
know. Since the ceremony is rapidly approaching, and wreaths need to be ordered, made and shipped, there is
some urgency to your response.
Thank you.
Thank them!

The minimum age for a CAP pilot is 16 with exceptions for balloon or glider pilots.
However, cadets of all ages are encouraged to participate in the cadet orientation
flight program. Ask at your unit or wing about how you can participate in this
program. Note: A student pilot certificate cannot be obtained until a person reaches
the age of 16 years (in powered aircraft) or 14 years (in gliders and balloons. See 14
CFR Part 61 61.83)
See pilot requirements in CAPR 60-1 CAP Flight Management 12 December 2012.
3-7. Classification of CAP Pilots. CAP pilots may operate a CAP aircraft according
to the classification of their experience and skills as follows:
a. CAP Solo Pilot.
(1)Possess a current student pilot certificate with solo endorsements in accordance
with 14 CFR Part 61 from a CAP Instructor Pilot in the make and model aircraft
flown.
(2) For gliders, a minimum of 30 dual glider instruction flights prior to solo. Glider
encampment/academy students are restricted from completing solo the first time
they attend.
Also see below Paragraph 8-5a of CAPR 52-16 Cadet Program Management 21

8-5. Cadet Orientation Flights. The Cadet Orientation Flight Programs primary goal is
to introduce youth to general aviation through hands-on orientation flights in single
engine aircraft and gliders.
a. Eligibility. Cadets may fly as much as possible, but normally only five powered
flights and five glider flights will be reimbursed. Wing commanders may authorize
reimbursements for additional flights. More than one cadet may fly per sortie,
depending upon the aircrafts capability. Cadets are authorized an unlimited number
of backseat flights; they do not lose any of their syllabus flights by observing another
cadets flight from the backseat. The program is limited to current CAP cadets under
18 years of age. However, cadets aged 18 and older may participate in military
orientation flights.

The following
FAPS ANALYSIS - After identifying the Facts during the FAPS Analysis, the GA454 Cadets said that they
assumed that the Case Study Cadets were not devoted and their excuses were not valid. They concluded that those
Cadets were not responsible and that they lacked integrity. GA454 Cadets said that the solution was to try to
motivate the Case Study Cadets more effectively.
If you find that you can not attend an event you have volunteered for, how should you handle the situation?
Contact the activity coordinator and any others that need to be notified.
Tell a leader and apologize.
How could the Cadets in this situation model the Core Values of Volunteer Service and Integrity?
Would the response of this Cadet Commander make you more or less likely to volunteer at future events?
Uphold your promise. Do not give excuses. Plan ahead and show up on time.
Less likely.
Less, because nobody likes to get yelled at and they dont want to make the same mistake twice.
More. Her response makes us know that she counts on us to volunteer.
How could the Cadet Commander in this situation model the Core Value of Respect?
Tell the Cadets that by not letting the Activity Coordinator know that they were unable to attend was not being
respectful of the Coordinators time and efforts put forth to put together the activity.
By not yelling at the Cadets. Tell them why they shouldnt volunteer for something if they are not going to attend.
What can you do in your Squadron to increase participation in community volunteer service projects?
The next time you are called to volunteer, be sure to ask yourself: Which is more important, service to the
community, state, and nation or to your own personal desires? When volunteer members are asked to make
sacrifices in CAP, it is essential to stay consistent to CAPs Core Values.

DAYTON, Ohio Known as the Doolittle Raiders, the 80 men who risked their lives on a World War II bombing
mission on Japan after the attack on Pearl Harbor were toasted one last time by their surviving comrades and
honored with a Veterans Day weekend of fanfare shared by thousands. Three of the four surviving Raiders
attended the toast Saturday at the National Museum of the U.S. Air Force. Their late commander, Lt. Gen. James
"Jimmy" Doolittle, started the tradition but they decided this autumn's ceremony would be their last.
"May they rest in peace," Lt. Col. Richard Cole, 98, said before he and fellow Raiders -- Lt. Col. Edward Saylor, 93,
and Staff Sgt. David Thatcher, 92 -- sipped cognac from specially engraved silver goblets. The 1896 cognac was
saved for the occasion after being passed down from Doolittle.
Hundreds invited to the ceremony, including family members of deceased Raiders, watched as the three each
called out "here" as a historian read the names of all 80 of the original airmen.
The fourth surviving Raider, Lt. Col. Robert Hite, 93, couldn't travel to Ohio because of health problems. But son
Wallace Hite said his father, wearing a Raiders blazer and other traditional garb for their reunions, made his own
salute to the fallen with a silver goblet of wine at home in Nashville, Tenn., earlier in the week. Hite is the last
survivor of eight Raiders who were captured by Japanese soldiers. Three were executed; another died in captivity.
A B-25 bomber flyover helped cap an afternoon memorial tribute in which a wreath was placed at the Doolittle
Raider monument outside the museum. Museum officials estimated some 10,000 people turned out for Veterans
Day weekend events honoring the 1942 mission credited with rallying American morale and throwing the Japanese
off balance.
Acting Air Force Secretary Eric Fanning said America was at a low point, after the Japanese attack on Pearl Harbor
and other Axis successes, before "these 80 men who showed the nation that we were nowhere near defeat." He
noted that all volunteered for a mission with high risks throughout, from the launch of B-25 bombers from a carrier at
sea, the attack on Tokyo, and lack of fuel to reach safe bases.
The Raiders have said they didn't realize at the time that their mission would be considered an important event in
turning the war's tide. It inflicted little major damage physically, but changed Japanese strategy while firing up
Americans. "It was what you do ... over time, we've been told what effect our raid had on the war and the morale of
the people," Saylor said in an interview. The Brussett, Mont., native who now lives in Puyallup, Wash., said he was
one of the lucky ones. There were a whole bunch of guys in World War II; a lot of people didn't come back," he
said. Thatcher, of Missoula, Mont., said the raid just seemed like "one of many bombing missions" during the war.
The most harrowing part for him was the crash landing of his plane, depicted in the movie "Thirty Seconds over
Tokyo." Cole, of Comfort, Texas, was Doolittle's co-pilot that day. Three crew members died as Raiders bailed out
or crash-landed their planes in China, but most were helped to safety by Chinese villagers and soldiers.
Cole, Saylor and Thatcher were greeted Saturday by flag-waving well-wishers ranging from small children to fellow
war veterans. Twelve-year-old Joseph John Castellano's grandparents brought him from their Dayton home. "This
was Tokyo. The odds of their survival were one in a million," the boy said. "I just felt like I owe them a few short
hours of the thousands of hours I will be on Earth." Organizers said more than 600 people, including descendants
of Chinese villagers who helped the Raiders and Pearl Harbor survivors, were invited to the final-toast ceremony.
The 80 silver goblets in the ceremony were presented to the Raiders in 1959 by the city of Tucson, Ariz. The
Raiders' names are engraved twice, the second upside-down. During the ceremony, white-gloved cadets presented
each of the three with their personal goblets and their longtime manager poured the cognac. The deceased's
glasses are turned upside-down.

THANKSGIVING
Busy with our everyday cycle, caught up with responsibilities,
rushing through our days in a blur of activity,
We rarely stop to reflect on the goodness of our lives.
Fortune smiles upon us. We do not know hunger.
We live in homes that provide us shelter from the elements.
We do not live under the cruel whims of a dictator.
We have the opportunity to succeed if we work diligently.
We are able to surround ourselves with family and friends.
We have a lot of control over the outcome of our lives.
At the inception of this country,
Overwhelming challenges faced the pioneers.
Survival of life and limb were at the top of the list
as these pilgrims bowed their heads in thanksgiving.
Today, we do not work the land for our survival.
Our challenges and struggles are of a different nature.
But like the pilgrims of old,
it is appropriate to bow our heads in thanksgiving,
and reflect on the goodness of our lives.
The paintings and writings on Pages 18 and 19 are original works of art by Major Mor.
