REVIEWED BY MAJOR TOM MARTIN, COMMANDER TABLE ROCK LAKE COMPOSITE SQUADRON 147

The Table Rock Lake Composite Squadron has really been moving forward after our move to the Branson Airport (BBG) back in October from Branson West Airport. This move also led to our involvement in the ACE Camps with Hollister Public School System.

The additional exposure gained with these two events has helped in getting out the best kept secret about CAP and about all the opportunities available for cadets and seniors. Our involvement with the Branson Airport and their willingness and assistance in allowing the installation of additional antennas for CAP at the airport and the use of their facilities has opened many opportunities that we have not had in the past. The future of MO-147 looks very bright. We continue to grow and are getting more members trained in specialty areas. Our air and ground teams will continue to be an even greater service to CAP and the community. Presently we have eight members from MO-147 serving in Group or Wing Positions and over the last two years have had nine members recognized with Wing, Regional or National awards. We are looking forward to continuing our training, growth, involvement and service to the community, state and nation and helping each other grow in CAP. As was described by one of our cadets in a recent letter, CAP is more than an organization, it’s a family working and learning together.
