  43. Reporting CAP Mishaps - Accidents • In all cases of mishaps arising out of CAP activities that can be classified as an accident, an appropriate CAP member (e.g., activity director/ commander, safety officer, ranking senior member) will: • Immediately notify the CAP National Operations Center (NOC) toll-free at 888-211-1812, ext 300, (24 hrs/day) • For mishaps involving death or bodily injury accidents, DO NOT fill in the “account” portion of the on-line Form 78 without prior coordination with a CAP legal officer or the General Counsel’s office.
