Kansas Wing Meets with U.S. Senator

Today, members of the Kansas Wing Civil Air Patrol had the opportunity to meet with U.S. Senator Roger Marshall and share the impact Civil Air Patrol has across Kansas. Senator Marshall currently represents Kansas in the U.S. Senate.

From developing cadets through leadership, character, aerospace education, and service to supporting emergency services and communities throughout our state, Civil Air Patrol continues to prepare the next generation while serving today.

A special thank you to Senator Roger Marshall and his office for taking the time to meet with our Civil Air Patrol members, listen to our cadets, and learn more about the work being accomplished throughout the Kansas Wing. We appreciate the opportunity to share our mission, the value of the Cadet Program, and the importance of investing in opportunities that develop Kansas youth into tomorrow’s leaders.
