I was in the CAP many, many years ago for a short time. If the squad is run by a competent commander, it's a great organization, especially if your son is interested in possibly joining the military. Unfortunately my squad was run by a complete doof and it was more the inmates running the show.

I do know a friend that used it to get a head start on his military career. If you hit certain ranks in the CAP, once you finish basic you can start out at a higher rank. At least it used to be that way, not sure now.

Let me know if you have any other questions and I'll try to answer what I can.
