The now obsolete Frank Borman Falcon Award was decommissioned in 1979. It was formerly awarded to CAP cadets who, after receiving the Gen. Carl A. Spaatz Award, went on to take steps to become dynamic Americans and Aerospace leaders by completing either a ROTC Course or completed their second year at a military institution of learning.
