S. Dakota Wing Provides Guam Cadet's First Orientation Flights
Recently, the Sioux Falls Composite Squadron had the pleasure of hosting a visiting cadet from Guam, C/MSgt Olson, who was in the area with his family visiting grandparents. Squadron Commander,1st Lt Giddings, learned that Olson had not yet received an orientation flight due to his home squadron in Guam not having a CAP aircraft and he arranged for a memorable experience. 1st Lt Bardon, a South Dakota Wing pilot who spent part of his childhood living in Guam, volunteered to provide not just one, but two orientation flights for Olson.
“It was an honor to fly with him,” said Lt Bardon. “Being able to give a cadet from my former home the opportunity for his first flights in a CAP aircraft made it even more special.”
The squadron was proud to support a fellow cadet and make his visit one to remember.
