The 1940s marked a turning point in life jacket technology with the widespread adoption of kapok-filled vests. Kapok—a natural, buoyant fiber derived from the tropical kapok tree—offered a lighter and more comfortable alternative to the bulky cork and canvas life preservers previously in use. This innovation greatly improved wearability and increased the chances that mariners, soldiers, and recreational boaters would actually wear their flotation devices.

On May 20th, Honor Flight South Florida will be conducting Mission XXXIV!  It would be wonderful if we could have a bunch of Pompano Beach Power Squadron members there to help greet the veterans.  The flight usually arrives ...
