Don't get me started on my brief membership in the Civil Air Patrol.

I think it's the uniforms. If you dress folks up like extras from
some kind of farcical operetta about vaguely fascist aquatic clowns
the guys who show up for a second day of work are likely to be acting
to type... The CAP, CG Aux and Power Squadron all do some good work
and have the potential to be wonderful resources but they seem to
attract a lot of guys who really ought to go join the benevolent order
of costume parties and I think they are the worse for it...
