[PAO] Civil Air Patrol changes commands to streamline its operations

[Michael Marek]

Exactly -- a LOCAL news story.  Nothing on the subject on capmembers.com.

We actually have aircraft stationed on base at Tyndall?  What patch got 
changed?  Do we all have to buy new patches before National Conference 
(if we wear military-style uniforms)?

There should be something from National PA about this, not just a local 
TV station story (which is pretty poorly written, I might add).  :-)
