Bill > J01450

This resolution honors Cadet Lieutenant Colonel Aiden Lockwood for receiving the General Ira C. Eaker Award from the Civil Air Patrol (CAP). The CAP is a congressionally chartered nonprofit organization that serves as the civilian auxiliary of the U.S. Air Force. The General Ira C. Eaker Award is the CAP's second highest honor, given to cadets who demonstrate excellence in leadership, character, fitness, and aerospace education. Cadet Lockwood, who began the program at age 12 and is now 16, has achieved this prestigious award, placing him among the top two percent of cadets nationwide. His recognition stems from his diligent efforts, including earning certifications in ground team and wilderness first aid, staffing encampments, and receiving numerous other awards for his academic and leadership achievements, such as being an honor student, Junior Class President, and Cadet Commander of NER-NY-189. The resolution also directs that a copy of this resolution be sent to Cadet Lockwood.
