Squadron PAO -- Do you have a flare for photography, videography, social media, and story telling? Maybe you could help us tell our story. (Additionally, I would love to see a PAO working with our cadets to get content from them. - SQ/CC)
Squadron AEO -- Is aviation in your blood? Do you love sharing that passion with youth? Then maybe aerospace education is your calling. (Pilots, I know we all love a good "war story" but please know that I am looking for someone to help guide youth instructors in topics, I want them to gain experience organizing and teaching classes. My ideal AEO would be occasionally stepping in with their expertise, or assisting with coordinating guest speakers, but otherwise helping cadets to plan and teach a meaningful year long program. - SQ/CC)
Much like the Air Force has Air Force Specialty Code (AFSC) and related jobs, Civil Air Patrol has for senior members. Below are CAP Specialty Track Codes and Names and the corelating Duty Positions (job titles for all intense purposes) underneath, note these are the duty positions available in a cadet squadron; a few of which are not available in a cadet squadron are grayed out. And while there may only be one primary in a duty position, there are in most circumstances, an unlimited number of assistants allowed.
