MEMORANDUM FOR All Personnel
FROM Colonel Jeffrey L. Garrett, Wing Commander
SUBJECT: Phase III Post COVID-19 Remobilization
1. Georgia Wing is preparing to move into Phase III of CAP’s post-COVID19 remobilization. We anticipate that NHQ will approve us to move to
Phase III effective on or about 10 June 2021.
2. Full CAP activities are now cautiously approved to re-open. We are now authorized to conduct Large Wing or Regional class sessions and flight
academies. Overnight SAREX’s and other activities are authorized. Members should continue hand washing and other health protection measures.
Members are asked to refrain from attending activities if they have any symptoms of respiratory distress. Squadron Commanders may continue to
require temperature checks prior to unit activities.
3. Cadet Activities: Planning should begin to establish training and activities appropriate to Phase III.
4. Emergency Services: Planning should begin to conduct training exercises this Summer and Fall to reinforce skills and upgrade members in
needed ES tasks.

5. Flight operations: Coordinate for supporting local AF ROTC and AF JR ROTC orientation flights. Note that local colleges or schools may have
different requirements for COVID 19 restrictions. TOP flights are now authorized. The WG/DO will coordinate all flight activities in support of
WG Flight Operations.
The FAA has issued guidance on post flight immunizations and holders of FAA-issued Airman Medical Certificates or Medical Clearances may
receive the Pfizer-BioNTech, Moderna, and Johnson & Johnson COVID-19 vaccines; however, a 48-hour no fly/no safety related duty interval must
be observed after each dose. This 48-hour restriction from flight applies to ALL crewmembers not just pilots.
6. Face Coverings: IAW National guidelines, Face Covering MAY be worn during CAP activities to protect those at high risk. This decision is
delegated to the Group/Squadron Commanders who MAY require them during indoor or closed space activities. Aircrew are encouraged to also
wear face coverings in Phase III as an additional risk mitigation when flying with non-CAP passengers or crew members. CAP NHQ Covid Team
will monitor CDC and other Federal Guidelines and tailor CAP guidelines to meet those requirements.
7. CAP vehicles: All members will wear face covering in CAP vehicles when three or members are present. Members should be screened prior to
transport. No more than 2 members are allowed bench type seating within vans.
