Cadets lead ground search for missing man in Cedar Rapids area
Hundreds of volunteers joined a four day effort to find Ted Leichtman, who wandered from his New Hampton home after a probable ice fall. Civil Air Patrol cadets aged 12 to 21 led groups of 25 to 30 volunteers, using radios and field training. Cadets spotted a frozen pond hole on day two, and a diver recovered Leichtman from six feet under ice. The East Nowa Cadet Squadron based in Cedar Rapids City Hall supports searches with ground teams while senior members use air reconnaissance.
