SENATE RESOLUTION
8602
By Senators Honeyford, Haugen, Morton, Sheldon, and Swecker
WHEREAS, The Civil Air Patrol was born on December 1, 1941, just days before the attack on Pearl Harbor, for the purposes of liaison flying and interdiction of infiltrators on the east coast and the southern border of the United States, and the Civil Air Patrol insignia, a red three-bladed propeller in the Civil Defense white-triangle-in-blue-circle, began appearing everywhere; and
WHEREAS, When German submarines began to prey on American ships, the Civil Air Patrol's mission grew to include a 1,000-member coastal patrol, 64 of whom died in service and 26 of whom were lost at sea; and
WHEREAS, After Civil Air Patrol planes were issued bombs and depth charges in response to a crew watching in vain as a grounded sub off Cape Canaveral, Florida, escaped before the military arrived, the Civil Air Patrol Coastal flew 24 million miles and found 173 subs, attacked 57, hit 10, and sank two; and
WHEREAS, By presidential executive order, the Civil Air Patrol became an auxiliary of the Army Air Force on April 28, 1943, and some months later the Germans withdrew coastal U-boat operations "because of those damned little red and yellow airplanes"; and
WHEREAS, The Civil Air Patrol went on to target-towing operations, courier service for the Army, liaison and cargo flights between war plants, and southern border patrol against enemy infiltrators crossing from Mexico, and air, search and rescue, and nonflying Civil Air Patrol members guarded airfields and trained a rapidly growing corps of Civil Air Patrol cadets; and
WHEREAS, During the postwar years, the Civil Air Patrol was put to work in search and rescue missions, saving the United States millions of dollars in operational costs, because there was no other organization with the equipment and training to continue this vital job as military aircraft was far too expensive to operate and flew too fast to accurately spot downed planes and personnel; and
WHEREAS, During floods and other natural disasters, the Civil Air Patrol has flown vital serum and vaccines to areas unreachable by heavier aircraft, and ground teams have helped in the evacuation of cities and towns; and
WHEREAS, The Civil Air Patrol has a cadet program with over 23,000 young people between the ages of 12 and 20, one of its major attractions being the aerospace program which provides both classroom and practical instruction in flight and rocketry, and each cadet is offered the opportunity to participate in orientation flights in both powered and glider aircraft, while learning search and rescue techniques and many other valuable skills, with an emphasis on military history, leadership, and service to others both within the squadron and the community as a whole; and
WHEREAS, On May 18, 1980, when Mt. St. Helens in Washington state exploded, devastating approximately 150 square miles and triggering massive mud flows, floods, and ash fall, the Civil Air Patrol quickly responded to the county sheriff's request for help by establishing a 24-hour headquarters, aiding search and rescue missions, updating weather advisories, and assisting in ash cleanup; and
WHEREAS, Today's Civil Air Patrol continues its service and commitment to our state and country with three primary missions: Aerospace Education, Cadet Programs, and Emergency Services; and
WHEREAS, In Washington state alone, the Civil Air Patrol is composed of approximately 748 senior members and approximately 624 cadets, who in 2010 flew their eleven aircraft 2,650.7 hours in service to our state, at a value of 3 million dollars in volunteer hours, and, primarily for cadet aerospace education, their Washington state gliders flew 374 hours;
NOW, THEREFORE, BE IT RESOLVED, That the Washington state Senate recognize the Washington state wing of the Civil Air Patrol for its courageous and unwavering dedication to our citizens; and
BE IT FURTHER RESOLVED, That a copy of this resolution be immediately transmitted by the Secretary of the Senate to Civil Air Patrol Wing Commander, Colonel David Lehman, to Colonel Theodore Tax, and to newspaper editors throughout the state of Washington.
Senators Honeyford, Haugen, Swecker, Shin and Morton spoke in favor of adoption of the resolution.
The President declared the question before the Senate to be the adoption of Senate Resolution No. 8602.
The motion by Senator Honeyford carried and the resolution was adopted by voice vote.
INTRODUCTION OF SPECIAL GUESTS
The President welcomed and introduced Major General Gary Magonigle, Assistant Adjutant General, Washington Air National Guard; Colonel David Lehman, Washington Wing Commander; Colonel Theodore Tax, Washington Wing Vice Commander who were seated at the rostrum.
INTRODUCTION OF SPECIAL GUESTS
The President welcomed and introduced members of the Lieutenant Colonel Thomas Green, Washington Wing Southwest Area Vice Commander and Retired Lieutenant Colonel James Nakauchi, Civil Air Patrol, United States Air Force, Washington and Oregon Wing State Director and the members, guests and friends of the Civil Air Patrol who were seated in the gallery.
REMARKS BY COLONEL GARY MAGONIGLE
Major General Gary Magonigle: “Mr. President, Senate Leadership, Senator Honeyford and the sponsorship, the group that put forward this resolution, distinguished members of the Senate, Civil Air Patrol members and distinguished members of the gallery, I am Major General Gary Magonigle, Assistant Adjutant General for Air and Commander of the Washington Air National Guard. I am proud to serve alongside the Washington Wing of the Civil Air Patrol. When called upon the Civil Air Patrol is an indispensible partner in minimizing the impact of emergencies and disasters on the people, property, environment and the economy of Washington State in the region. It’s important to note that Civil Air Patrol members are volunteers, members who formed, trained, motivated and educated teams that recognize and reward the volunteer spirit and service to our communities, the state and the nation. The Civil Air Patrol prides itself in developing leaders at all levels within their organization. They also actively foster the understanding of the importance of Air space capabilities in their members and in our communities. A prime importance though is the ability to provide domestic operations capability across the United States. The Civil Air Patrol capabilities are extensive and they includes air and ground fleet availability with over five hundred fifty aircraft and nine hundred and forty crown vehicles with trained crews available for search and rescue. There’s aerial recognizance, a nationwide radio network communication system that include over five thousand fixed radio land stations and ten thousand mobile radio stations that form a nationwide communications capability that is not dependent on satellite or cell phone systems. There’s law enforcement support, the ability to take law enforcement agents aloft for visual recognizance and areas of interest. The Civil Air Patrol provides a critical domestic operations capability directly supporting federal, state and local authorities in missions such as search and rescue, disaster relief, counter drug and home land security. They are accessible, generally available within four hours of notification and with advance coordination they can often be postured in alert status capable of launching within minutes, ready to save lives and relieve human suffering. In addition to this substantial contributions to domestic operations the Civil Air Patrol offers robust cadet education programs for youth ages twelve through twenty-one. The Cadet programs emphasize individual study, preparation and instruction through five core areas of achievement. They are leadership laboratory, aero-space education, physical fitness, moral leadership and lastly squadron activities. These five areas include use of trained senior Cadets and senior members who work collectively with individually with Cadets who need assistance in their training. Nationally, seventy-five percent of our young Americans are unable to join the military largely because they are not physically fit; they are not sufficiently educated or have serious criminal records. High School dropout rates are at an all time high. Here’s what Civil Air Patrol offers our youth: Opportunities for military service and college. Six to ten percent of each college class that enters our military service academies are Civil Air Patrol Cadets. Cadet’s who distinguish themselves in Civil Air Patrol are eligible to enlist in the Air Force at a higher grade of pay. There are opportunities to participate and compete in numerous activities in the local state and national disciplines. Scholarships are available. Opportunities to earn FFA pilot rating are within reach of our Cadets. Simply put, the Civil Air Patrol Cadet program offers our youth alternatives that build a path way to success through access to positive role models and by providing a place to belong that is so important to our young adults. I thank the Senate for having provided me this distinct honor and opportunity to acknowledge the Washington State Wing of the Civil Air Patrol and all this organization does for the state of Washington and the United States of America. Mr. President.”
REMARKS BY THE PRESIDENT
President Owen: “Thank you General. Colonel Lehman.”
REMARKS BY COLONEL DAVID LEHMAN
Colonel David Lehman: “Thank you Mr. President. Mr. President, Senators and staff, General Magonigle, members and guests. It is my pleasure to speak to you today. I won’t repeat the facts that General Magonigle stated because they are very valid facts. CAP is a nationwide organization, we have professional volunteers, we have lots of capability and our goal is to serve our community. We have twenty-six squadrons around the state and serving our community is our primary goal. We’re honored by this resolution today and we thank Senator Honeyford and his staff and the Senate for honoring us. Again we’re the official auxiliary of the Air Force. We’re community based and our primary missions are emergency services, aerospace education and our Cadet program. Mercy services, we do assist in searching for lost air craft but also when there are floods around the state, which I think we’ve had a few recently, we have the capability of taking photographs to provide the state and the federal government the opportunity to see real time what’s going on and act accordingly. Our most important mission of course is our Cadet program, both Colonel Tax and I are former Cadets from this state and these are our future leaders. We provide a very structural opportunities for them to learn followership then leadership and it’s great that they get the opportunity today to see and visit the Senate. Of course we hope that they are all future voters. So, again thank you very much for this resolution. It’s a real honor and we hope we can serve this state even more during these economic times. Thank you.”
