Cadets from US and Canada working together at local air show

140 cadets from the Civil Air Patrol and the Royal Canadian Air Cadets are working side by side at the Arlington Air Show this week.

These boys and girls are working in support roles which include marshaling aircraft to parking, crosswalk safety, and other safety related jobs.

The cadets begin and end every workday standing in formation for the playing of the national anthems of both countries, while making new friendships.

The cadet program is open to youth aged 12-17.   www.overlakecap.org
