Cadets learn emergency rope use

Under the direction of Capt. Art Madden, cadets with the Saline County Composite Squadron learned some basic rope use  techniques.

The training is part of Civil Air Patrol’s emergency services mission. Nationally, Civil Air Patrol completes about 85 percent of all federal inland search-and-rescue missions directed by the Air Force Rescue Coordination Center. Nearly 100 people are saved each year by CAP members.
