___ PCN FLIGHT WEST is sponsored by the Pilot Communication Network and is a service of the PCN provided for the Delta Pilot Retired family of pilot groups. Flight West was started and is maintained to accomplish two main goals. After we become aware of a colleague who has Flown West, 1. We aim to produce a “timely” notice sent to our community that allows for support and interaction from our group toward the grieving family of our friend and colleague. 2. Then, we aim to “archive” that notice on our Flown West Blogspot as a lasting accessible place of Dignity and Honor of our colleague for family legacy and posterity. Contributor contact info is generally removed before posting (unless requested otherwise).

CAP Congressional Gold Medal Bill
posted Jul 8, 2012 4:38 AM by Paul Creed III
Ohio Wing CAP Members,
..............message from our National Commander, MG Charles. L. Carr about the current status of the Congressional Gold Medal for our WWII CAP Veterans in the House of Representatives.  This situation directly effects all of our WWII Veterans from Ohio.
...........among the list of Confirmed and Unconfirmed Recipients:
DALTON, JAMES R.   AWAITING CONFIRMATION   OHIO
A large majority of these veterans flew Coastal Anti-Submarine Patrols from the CAP Coastal Patrol Base 14 in Panama City, FL during the opening months of WWII in 1942.  I have personally talked with Col. Robert Arn, CAP from Westerville, Ohio, and his recollections of the duty he and the rest of the Ohio folks at Coastal Patrol Base 14 is truly awesome and inspiring. 
...................support HR 719 for the Civil Air Patrol Congressional Gold Medal for our remaining WWII CAP Veterans.
