A N G E L F L G H T Angels Aid Air Force Cadets; Promote Pride Fourteen cherubs are sworn in as official angels in a candlelight ceremony at the Fall Dining Out The John H. Payne Angel Flight at the University of Texas boosted the esprit de corps and morale of the Air Force ROTC Cadet Corps in many ways. The Angels attended drills, baked goodies for the cadets and adopted cadets to correspond with as a secret Angel. The Angels served the community by par- ticipating in many projects. They held a bingo party at a senior citizens ' home and helped Jerry ' s kids on Labor Day by man- ning the phones at the annual telethon. Other projects included a UNICEF Hallow- een party and a picnic for underprivileged children. Along with projects for the Corps and community, the girls found time to be the Area Angel Flight Headquarters. This job entailed keeping the administrative records of the nine flights in Texas. The Angels acted as official hostesses at many Corps social functions, like the annual military ball and awards banquet. The Angels kept up with the Corps as far as party going went and even surpassed the Cadets by throwing numerous secret par- ties. The most famous of these was the annual Angel Flight all-girl slumber party. Capt. Mark Jacobs becomes an honorary Angel at the group s annual awards banquet. 458 Angel Flight
