Welcome New 130th Member 

Congratulations for being accepted as a member of the Civil Air Patrol and the 130th Composite Squadron! 
  • After your membership has been approved by National Headquarters, you will be given your six digit CAP identification number or CAPID. This number will allow you to log in to the E-Services website which is your main portal to your initial online resources. 
  • ​Once you login for the first time, you’ll be prompted to complete Operational Security, or OPSEC, training. Because we are part of the Air Force organization, you must complete this before moving forward.
