Preface
This pamphlet will prepare members for the responsibilities of a Civil Air
Patrol (CAP) Logistics Officer (LG). The contents of this pamphlet apply to
all levels, including squadron and group Logistics Officers in addition to
wing and region Directors of Logistics.
This specialty track study guide has three sections. The first section
applies to achievement of the Technician rating, the second section is
related to attaining the Senior rating, and the third section deals with the
skills required for the Master rating. This progression should prepare
members for positions of increasing responsibility as a logistics officer.
Study each section and apply the information to actual situations on the
job. If possible, the unit will assign an on-the-job (OJT) supervisor to assist
members through the process. If the unit cannot assign an OJT supervisor,
the member must learn the job through self-study and performance. The
Region LG should be actively involved in the training of Wing Directors of
Logistics, whenever possible, either as the OJT supervisor or as a mentor
during self-study. The wing Director of Logistics should assist in the
training of group and unit LGs.
The member and OJT supervisor will determine the level of competence at
each level. When the member reaches the desired level of competency for
the completion of a level, the unit commander will then certify proficiency in
the member’s personnel records and with National Headquarters through
eServices. After the unit commander’s certification of a Technician, Senior,
or Master rating, the member may wear the Leadership Ribbon (Technician
rating) with bronze (Senior rating) or silver (Master rating) star. Completion
of each rating is a requirement for promotion. Complete promotion criteria
is listed in CAPR 35-5, CAP Officer and Noncommissioned Officer
Appointments and Promotions, and CAPR 50-17, CAP Senior Member
Professional Development Program.
The LG specialty also has a badge. Upon earning the Technician rating, a senior
member is qualified to wear the LG Technician badge. There are separate
badges for the Senior and Master ratings. Refer to CAPR 39-3, Award of CAP
Medals, Ribbons, and Certificates, for additional information.
This specialty track is governed by CAP 174 series regulations. Feedback on the
contents of this study guide should be directed to CAP National Headquarters
Logistics and Mission Resources (NHQ/LG), lg@capnhq.gov.

Overview
This pamphlet describes the Logistics 206 Specialty Track. It also enables
a candidate to learn more about CAP’s Logistics programs, advance in
proficiency, and achieve the next rating. This pamphlet details the training
and evaluation requirements that must be met in order to achieve each
level. This pamphlet also itemizes the important publications that are used
to help the candidate gain knowledge about the Logistics function and
responsibilities of the Logistics officer. The specialty track is divided into
three ratings: Technician, Senior, and Master. The specific requirements
for each are discussed in this pamphlet. Training in this specialty track
may be accomplished under the guidance of a higher rated LG supervisor
or completed independently.
Whether with a supervisor or not, the candidate must meet the
requirements at each level to advance in the LG Specialty Track. Unless a
waiver has been requested and approved by the wing or region
commander, an individual cannot accelerate in a skill level faster than the
minimum time requirements per rating specified in this pamphlet. A waiver
is rare, but it can be approved based on documented prior significant
experience in LG.

Training Objectives
The objectives for the Logistics officer specialty track are to:
•

Develop a highly motivated and trained LG who will conduct and
promote effective Logistics programs.

•

Perform the duties and tasks associated with CAP’s squadron, group,
wing, and region Logistics officer positions.

•

Possess a comprehensive knowledge of the Logistics programs.

Each specialty track level contains Knowledge, Training, and Performance
Requirements as well as Service Requirements that must be completed in
order to attain each successive rating. These requirements will vary as the
candidate proceeds through the levels. These requirements are derived
from self-study, on-the-job training (OJT) experiences and agreement with
your assigned OJT supervisor.
•

4

Knowledge Requirements are objectives describing what each
candidate is expected to know in order to attain the rating. An online test
is the primary method by which candidates demonstrate their knowledge
of the material. The exams are open-book with no time limit and the

CAPP 206

18 APRIL 2013

passing score is 80%. Go to CAP University; click on Online Courses &
Exams and find the CAPP 206 Specialty Track exams under Specialty
Track Tests. If students are not successful in passing the exam the
system will not allow a retake for 7 days after the last attempt.
•

Training Requirements are objectives that require the candidate to
learn systems and processes.

•

Performance Requirements are objectives describing what each
candidate is expected to complete through active participation to attain
the rating.

•

Service Requirements require that candidates serve in a certain area
for a specified amount of time to receive the rating. While not limiting the
role that candidates may take as Logistics Officers, it is suggested that
the level of responsibility begin modestly and increase as the candidate
advances.

Guidance for On-the-Job Training (OJT) Supervisors and Unit
Commanders
The OJT supervisor plays an important role in the success of the LG in
training. These senior member officers, in partnership with the unit’s
commander, guide the candidate through the knowledge, training,
performance, and service requirements for the rating the candidate is
pursuing.
Once the OJT supervisor or the wing LG is satisfied that the candidate has
met all the requirements for the rating, they and the candidate notify the
unit commander.
When the commander is satisfied that the candidate can perform to the
level applied for and has met the service requirements, they record award
of the rating in the candidate’s master record and notify National
Headquarters of the rating award through eServices.
