Welcome to the Home Page of the Civil Air Patrol, Mansfield 177th Squadron at Mansfield Lahm Field, Ohio Air National Guard Base.  A flight consists of both cadets and adult members.  Prospective cadets must be 12 years of age and currently attending 6th grade to join. No prior military service or special skills are required to become an adult member. If you would like to participate in the growth of young cadets, we will give you the tools to do it. The Civil Air Patrol offers young men and women and adults across the country challenging opportunities in an awards-based, multi-level program. Leadership training, Air Force Customs and Courtesies, technical education, and an opportunity to participate in aviation related activities are just a few of the benefits of Civil Air Patrol membership.   

Please E-mail the Squadron Commander, Daniel Griffith at daniel.griffith@ohwg.cap.gov , or Deputy Commander Jason Kaufmann at jason.kaufmann@ohwg.cap.gov if you are interested in attending a meeting.
