THE SQUADRON THAT SAVES LIVES
Cadets and Senior Members earn achievements and wear ribbons on their uniform
representing a variety of accomplishments in Civil Air Patrol. Did you know that the squadron
as a unit can receive awards? When this happens, all members of the squadron at the time the
award is given has the honor of wearing the ribbon that represents the achievement. What an
honor to not only wear the ribbons that you earn but to wear a ribbon that your
unit earns!
The Civil Air Patrol Unit Citation Award
is presented for "exceptionally meritorious
service or exceptionally outstanding achieve-
ment." The service and achievement being
recognized must clearly be above that which
is performed by other similar units. On the
rarest of occasions, the National Commander
awards what is known as the National Com-
mander’s Unit Citation Award to a Squadron
that has “provided services or achievements
above and beyond those normally recog-
nized by a Unit Citation Award.” The National
Commander's Unit Citation Award is approved by the Civil Air Patrol's National Board meeting.
Awards are made at the sole discretion of the National Commander of the Civil Air Patrol.
I am proud to announce that San Diego Cadet Squadron 144 has been awarded the
National Commander’s Unit Citation Award for the exemplary performance of duties in
support of the US Forest Service during the 2012 summer season. Squadron 144 was credited
with saving numerous lives and preventing the injury of others while on foot patrols in the
Cleveland National Forest. The personnel of this squadron endured extreme tempera-
tures and terrain for long periods and volunteered over 1,700 hours patrolling the for-
est. Their efforts resulted in numerous lives saved, reduction of helicopter extrac-
tions, and prevented countless injuries. The efforts of this unit resulted in a letter of
commendation sent to MGen. Charles L. Carr, Jr., CAP Nat'l Cmdr from the Cleveland
National Forest District Ranger, and in the writing of a Memorandum of Understanding
between CAP and the USFS for a cooperative program on a national scale. To this day
members of Squadron 144 volunteer with the US Forest Service providing life saving
services on the hazardous trails in the Cleveland National Forest. My personal con-
gratulations to all members of Squadron 144, the squadron that saves lives.

NIGHT SAREx inThermal
SAREx Training is a time to test how Air, Base, Communication, and Ground Teams work together so in
real emergencies all jobs are accomplished seamlessly. During this SAREx, Ground Team 1 handled all
their responsibilities effortlessly and worked so well as a team that even though they faced unplanned
challenges, the mission was completed without missing any steps. Congratulations for a job well done!

SAREx Training at Salton Sea on 31 August to 1 September 2015 By Capt Reginald Angquico, CAP, Personnel Officer
31 August 2015 – Thermal, CA. What do most people do on a Friday evening Saturday morning?
While most citizens are enjoying their day off relaxing from a hard week’s work, members of the
Civil Air Patrol (CAP), US Air Force Auxiliary took to the skies in a night time search and rescue
exercise (SAREx).
A total of 44 personnel participated from 14 CAP California Wing assets (eight from our squadron)
and complemented by six aircraft and two CAP SUVs. CAP personnel assembled at the Jacqueline
Cochran Regional Airport (KTRM), at Landmark Aviation’s hangar on 31 August at 19:00 hours.
It was over 110 degrees F when we arrived and wearing a flight suit certainly made it worst.
Ground Team Members were split into two groups and were given instructions to signal overhead
aircraft. Team 2 was sent to the campground on the eastern side of the Salton Sea and were to use
strobe lights and their vehicle's headlights to signal their location. Team 1 was assigned to the
western side of Salton Sea with flares, strobe lights and an ELT (emergency locator transmitter).
Their location was somewhere between Desert Shores and Salton City.
Aircrew in six aircraft flying three sorties each (15 minutes or more apart), began flying around
21:00 hours. My aircraft's call sign was “CAP 437”, piloted by Mission Pilot Capt Steve Groner, our
Mission Observer was 1Lt Randell Brown and I was the Mission Scanner sitting behind the pilot. At
23:50 hours we did our pre-flight inspection and took off after midnight. While airborne and climb-
ing to 2,500’ MSL, it was hard to determine what lights we were looking for since the ground was
filled with all sorts of lighting from vehicles and buildings. Ten minutes into the flight, I saw a small
blinking light and I was wondering if it was somebody on a bike with a strobe light. I told the rest
of the crew to look at 11 o'clock low, when the light reached 9 o'clock, I requested Capt Groner to
circle the light and we saw headlights turn on and we marked the sighting's latitude/longitude and
recorded the time 00:20 hours. We then climbed to 3,500’ MSL towards Calipatria for our second
checkpoint and turned towards Salton City and climbed to 6,500’ MSL for our third checkpoint. We
heard an ELT signal and we descended to 2,500’ MSL heading towards the ELT. I initially saw
strobe lights and requested Capt Groner to circle the light. As we orbited the area, we saw two
flares head towards the sea. We marked the area’s latitude/longitude and recorded the time 00:53
hours. We then left the area, climbed to 6,500’ MSL and headed back to Jacqueline Cochran Re-
gional Airport arriving at 01:08 hours.
I had to wait for C/2Lt Madeleine Angquico and C/TSgt Matthew Angquico to return to base before
heading to our hotel room, since they were on Ground Team 2. They arrived around 02:30 hours
and by the time we arrived at the hotel, showered and settled down to bed it was 04:00 hours. I've
been awake since 05:30 hours the previous day, worked a full day at my job, and then proceeded
to the SAREx. Needless to say, I was tired but proud to be associated with a group of dedicated in-
dividuals, ready and prepared to volunteer their time to train, so that others in peril may live.

Three POW/MIAs have visited San Diego Ca-
det Squadron 144 and shared their experiences dur-
ing our Aerospace Education (AE) training as guest
speakers. Each of them are little bits and pieces of
our past American history. We were very honored
to listen to their stories.
BGen Robert Cardenas, USAF (Ret.) was a guest speaker who at one point was MIA dur-
ing WWII. Prior to WWII, he was an Army private assigned to a coastal artillery battery above
Los Angeles Harbor. When war broke out, his CO summoned him to his office, told him he’s go-
ing to March Army Air Corps Base to learn how to fly. Pvt Cardenas said, “Why me? I don’t
know how to fly.” The CO told him, “You are the only one with a few college classes and they
need pilots now. Sign these papers and report to March Air Base.”
Once he started his flight training, he was a natural! They commissioned him a 2Lt and off
he went to a B-24 Liberator squadron in England. He completed 12 missions over occupied
Europe and was shot down over Lake Constance bordering southern Germany and Switzerland.
He knew which way to swim and ending up as an internee of the Swiss Government. All Ameri-
can Servicemen that were captured by the Swiss were put up in a hotel and told that they would
stay there until the war was over. Switzerland has always been a neutral country during world
wars. Lt Cardenas would not stay, he wanted back in the war, so a ‘contact’ told him how to en-
ter occupied France under the German guns via a train. He did exactly as the French Under-
ground told him and thus became MIA for about one month! He ended up in Normandy where
an unmarked, black, C-47 Skytrain landed and to his surprise the bushes around him erupted
with American airmen like him! They all piled into that aircraft and were back in England within
the hour! His status as a MIA ended and he was sent to Wright-Patterson USAAC Base to be-
come a test pilot.
After the war he was in charge of the Mach One Program at Murdoc Dry Lake Test Base
(Edwards AFB, CA) and was the pilot of the B-29 Superfortress that launched then Maj Chuck
Yeager into history as the first man to fly faster than the speed of sound on 14 October 1947 in
the Bell X-1 rocket jet. Then Lt Col Cardenas was assigned as test pilot for the XB-49 flying wing
bomber program 70 years ago. After the XB-49 program, he was assigned as the Special Op-
erations Chief in charge of keeping the Communist Chinese from crossing the Himalayan Moun-
tain range and invading then “East Pakistan” (now Bangladesh). Finally he coordinated the
turnover of Wheelus AFB, Libya with a young Lt named Muammar Gaddafi in 1970. This Ameri-
can Hero stood next to the podium in our meeting room from 19:00 to 21:30 hours giving us five
stories in one, that I just glossed over.
His bottom line: “Attend college no matter how many classes you attend.” By the way, the
artillery unit he was assigned to transferred to Corregidor, Philippines and they all became
POWs of the Imperial Japanese Army!

September/October 2015 Issue The Phoenix Flyer San Diego Cadet Squadron 144
We were also honored with former
WWII TSgt Herman Peacher, USAAC who was
a tail gunner in a B-24 Liberator during WWII.
Over Austria, he was shot down on his 7th mis-
sion in 1944 and became a POW at Hamm,
Germany. His stories were also fascinating,
tragic, and enlightening about how one sur-
vives in a German POW camp, especially in
the winter.
Our third POW was Cdr Henry J. Bedinger, USN (Ret.) who spoke to us one year ago. He
was shot down over Laos on 22 Nov 1969 in an F-4 Phantom while on a bombing run. He spoke
to us about his training as a Radar Intercept
Officer (RIO), aircraft carrier air ops over
North Vietnam, and becoming a POW at the
infamous Hanoi Hilton. I do hope some of you
were here a year ago and remember what he
spoke about as an American Patriot.
Please keep all of our past POWs in
mind this coming Friday, 18 September 2014
on POW/MIA National Recognition Day. Think
about what they went through in solitary con-
finement, torture, being separated from their
loved ones and comrades-in-arms, always
wondering if they were abandoned by their
country. I suspect some MIAs are still held
by North Korea during that early 1950s war and Hilton. I do hope some of you were here a year
ago and remember what he spoke about as an American Patriot.
Please keep all of our past POWs in mind this coming Friday, 18 September 2014 on
POW/MIA National Recognition Day. Think about what they went through in solitary confine-
ment, torture, being separated from their loved ones and comrades-in-arms, always wondering
if they were abandoned by their country. I suspect some MIAs are still held by North Korea
during that early 1950s war and also Vietnam, as some of our MIAs have never been fully ac-
counted for yet. We are fortunate that as of this date, there are no more American Servicemen
or Servicewomen being interned as POWs.
Keep looking up,

Orientation Rides otherwise known as “O” Rides were offered on 22
August and 05 September 2015 at Gillespie Field to cadets in order to expose them
to a small single engine aircraft. Cadets are offered 5 free “O” Rides before the age
of 18 in hopes to instill a love to fly. Each “O”
Ride is tailored to educate the cadet on spe-
cific flight training objectives. This is where
the love of flying really begins. To learn
more, read CAPP 52-7 Flight Syllabus on
e-services. Thank you volunteer CAP Pilots
for your time and expertise! We appreciate
you!

ANNUAL CAP ASTRONOMY NIGHT ð
Want to learn about the stars and see the Milky Way? Amateur Astronomer Jerry Hilburn has agreed to host us again this year to view the heavens utilizing his various telescopes located at San Diego Astronomy Association (SDAA) Tierra del Sol site. We will camp out under the stars Saturday night 10 October and Sunday morning 11 Oc-tober to view the heavens next to his observatory. This is an excellent opportunity to see the heavens and learn about
astronomy by meeting with the other amateur astronomers and view a clear semi-dark sky in East County.
Some of the targets you’ll want to see are: Saturn, M45, M31, and Venus. The moon will not be a factor, so hope-fully we’ll have a clear dark night sky ahead of us. Unfortunately the brightest part of the Milky Way will be setting in the west, so we’ll have to look quick before it sets. With access to the SDAA’s 22” Ritchey-Chretien telescope inside the Lipp Observatory, you’ll see many fascinating celestial objects.
This is not a typical CAP bivouac, instead, it’s a stellar astronomical laboratory where you can discover and learn things you’ll never see or hear about in the light polluted city. You’re going to be an expert on AE Module 5 Space
Environment and perhaps ‘rocket’ through that on-line test as well with a 100% score!
When: Saturday, 10 October 2015
Time/Where: At 1300 hours, report outside the gate at the 147th Combat Communications Squadron (CBCS), California ANG. We will car pool over to the Golden Acorn Casino, about one hour drive on I-8 East and exit Golden Acorn Way (address: 1800 Golden Acorn Way, Campo). At about 1400 hours we will meet at the Golden Acorn Casino’s gas station in order to meet other CAP squadrons. Maj Ammann will lead the way to the SDAA’s dark sky site on Tierra Del Sol Road (there is no address).
Return: 0930 hours (approx), Sunday, 11 Oct 2015 to the 147th CBCS gate.
Uniform: Battle Dress Uniform (don’t have BDUs?... wear civilian clothes with long pants and jacket)
Cost: Free Bring: CAPF 31 & 160 (both signed by parent), 161 & 163, camera (optional), brown sack din-
ner, sleeping bag, tent, toothbrush/toothpaste, canteen or camelback, flashlight with red filter or red cellophane (I have cellophane if you don’t) to cover your white light, and a jacket.
