The International Air Cadet Exchange is the premier summer activity for Civil Air Patrol Cadets. Each summer, dozens of CAP Cadets, from across the United States, are selected to visit among dozens of countries represented in the Exchange.For me, the International Air Cadet Exchange was twenty-one days that lasted a lifetime.In our three-week trip to Sweden there were nine trips by air, and eleven by bus. We visited eight historical attractions, eight major Swedish companies, and another eight sightseeing excursions of various kinds. We stayed at seven RSAF bases, two private homes, and were guests at fourteen formal banquets, and receptions. Moreover, we had a chance to see another, very special, country, and live a hectic daily schedule with guys from four other countries, and from across the US.
