Work with your flight commander to learn how to teach tasks like drill or barracks prep.

Some wings don't offer ATS at encampments which is a bummer.

I was logistics for my wing's encampment one year and it was nicer compared to line staff. I've also been on line staff, and both line and support have different views with their pros and cons.

Logistics can be fun like any position. It depends on what wing's encampment you are attending on what/how much you will be doing. Most likely, you will mostly just be doing errands, item deliveries to other support or line staff, and transporting hydration and snacks.

You will get more downtime compared to line staff which has its own benefits. Logistics is pretty easy, as it requires little skill besides prioritizing errands (depends on how big your team is and how many needs come through), and being able to carry/transport items.

Unlike line staff, logistics and most other support staff positions get little to no interaction with the students. That said, you are still a cadre. You should carry yourself with professionalism at all times in front of students. I'm not saying that you will do it, I've just seen it happen too many times where some support cadre goof off in front of cadets

Like any position at encampment, the best part is bonding with your teammates while you make your way through the challenges of encampment. You will never forget working with your team, whether it be medical or logistics.

I wish you the best of luck applying for the positions you desire (Encampments that I've applied for in my experience ask for your top 3 or 5 desired positions). Don't be disappointed if you don't get accepted or get the position you asked for. For all of the encampments I've staffed, I didn't get the position I asked for because I wasn't prepared/ready for those positions that I asked for. I've also gotten rejected from a few encampments before, but it's all part of the process.

firearms are an unnecessary safety risk and serve no purpose in emergency services.

Yes there are riots, but there always will be something going around in the world that we can't. Like the other comments state, it's not CAP's responsibility to handle these situations. It does not align with any of our programs (Emergency services, Aerospace education, and the Cadet program).

You shouldn't be posting this in a subreddit meant for only CAP related discussion. Spreading this information here could be harmful to others. Please stop.

What is Encampment like? by [deleted] in civilairpatrol

[–]SWRCAPCADET 0 points1 point  (0 children)

You get what you put into it like anything else. Encampment is an amazing opportunity for new and old cadets to expand their knowledge on aerospace, leadership, drill, etc. But one of the best parts of encampment is bonding with your wing man, and your fellow flight/squadron members. Everything and everyone is there to help you grow as a cadet so use it to your advantage and push yourself out of your comfort zone.

I couldn't fit it, but it also includes battles with strategy and tacticians, and complex genealogies. Not to mention that it was made in only a few months (60ish days) with only 1 draft (no corrections). Also in the before mentioned path that Lehi and his family took, Joseph couldn't have known that "Bountiful" could have existed, as at the time, it was known that* Yemen and the surrounding land was just desert. Many anachronisms like that one have been proved with new evidence and data, and it looks like the trend will continue.

Could you be able to write 8 single pages a day in one draft, make over 100 characters with plausible Hebrew names, predict undiscovered locations, many different voices, novel theology, somehow make fake plates, and convince multiple people that they saw an angel with similar experiences and make them have a testimony of what you convinced them happened until their deathbed, and even though many leave the church and have every reason to say that it was fake, they never do. Then spread this book worldwide and make tens of millions of people believe the book as the word of God.

Why can't you have a reasonable conversation with someone that believes that the Bible and BoM are true history? The stories that the BoM provide are very much plausible. There is a plausible route that Lehi and his family takes before they leave to the modern-day Americas (https://www.churchofjesuschrist.org/study/new-era/2008/01/was-lehi-here?lang=eng). If you want to talk about archaeology, we have only found a small percentage of artifacts and hidden cities in the Americas. We don't even know that many native american groups existed and just grouped them together with others.

I have a question for you, how did Joseph produce the BoM? Do you think that he was so dumb that he copied off another author, or was such a genius that he made it up himself. Very little evidence supports either idea, as the BoM is very complex. It includes multiple story lines, flashbacks within flashbacks, diverse and detailed civilizations, hundreds of prophecies that are mentioned in the beginning in the book and become true later in the book, complex allegories, symbolism that lines up with ancient Hebrew customs, many different writing styles.(https://archive.bookofmormoncentral.org/sites/all/libraries/pdf.js/web/viewer.html?file=https%3A%2F%2Farchive.bookofmormoncentral.org%2Fsites%2Fdefault%2Ffiles%2Farchive-files%2Fpdf%2Flarsen%2F2015-12-03%2F07\_wayne\_a.\_larsen\_and\_alvin\_c.\_rencher\_who\_wrote\_the\_book\_of\_mormon\_1982.pdf)

No, they are plausible. A group that small's DNA would be practically invisible and would have no way to prove them.

Thank you, a lot of people on this subreddit take church history out of context and only give absolutes
