Stover: Fort Meade: Diversity and service is a Courtney family affair

Serving in the Civil Air Patrol’s National Capitol Wing, which encompasses the Washington, D.C. area, is a Courtney family affair. Dean Courtney II, a sophomore at Chesapeake Math and IT (CMIT) Academy South, joined the Civil Air Patrol (CAP) when he was 12 years old and is currently serving as the cadet deputy commander at the Tuskegee Composite Squadron in the National Capitol Wing. His father, Dean Courtney, is a resource manager for the 780th Military Intelligence Brigade (Cyber) at Fort Meade and is the squadron’s character development instructor.
