Massachusetts Continues to Perform Valuable Work
Civil Air Patrol members continued to assist local communities all across the Commonwealth in many ways as a response to the Coronavirus (COVID-19) Pandemic.
CAP members have been assisting the Massachusetts Emergency Management Agency (MEMA) by helping to load and unload trucks, inventorying personal protective equipment and other needed medical supplies, and assembling orders of those items for delivery to local municipalities around the state.
Our member’s ability to assist is rooted in the Emergency Services training our members receive. Civil Air Patrol Airmen are using skills normally utilized for search and rescue or disaster relief to support our community during this difficult time. In doing so, our relationship with MEMA has greatly strengthened and we are seen as a viable and important partner to their mission.
