Which action exemplifies service before self in CAP?

• A. Focusing on personal interests.
• B. Avoiding responsibilities.
• C. Volunteering to help during missions or fundraising.
• D. Delegating all tasks to others.

Answer: (C)

Service before self means putting the needs of the group and the mission ahead of personal desires. Volunteering to help during missions or fundraising is a clear, real-world way to show that selfless commitment: it requires giving your time and effort to support CAP’s work and assist others, even when there’s no personal gain. This demonstrates a willingness to place the team's priorities and the community’s needs above individual interests. Actions that focus on personal gains, avoid responsibilities, or pass all tasks to others don’t reflect putting the group first, because they center the individual rather than the collective mission.
