Civil Air Patrol Commander's Corruption

CAP COMMANDER SACKED
(http://www.avweb.com/eletter/archive...ll.html#196279)
The Board of Governors of the Civil Air Patrol has stripped the
organization's suspended commander, Maj. Gen. Tony Pineda, of his
rank, position and membership after investigating allegations that a
member of CAP's Florida unit took U.S. Air Force Command and Staff
College tests on Pineda's behalf in 2002 and 2003. Pineda was
suspended in early August after the allegations came to light and the
board of governors decided to formally investigate them. "This action
was taken after careful review of the facts and circumstances and
after numerous discussions of the report of the investigation against
Gen. Pineda," Maj. Gen. Richard Bowling, chairman of the board of
governors, said in a news release. Brig. Gen. Amy Courter, CAP's
deputy commander, assumed command during Pineda's suspension and will
continue in that role until August of 2008 when the board of governors
will convene to elect a new commander. Courter can run.
