Civil Air Patrol isn’t just one of the best kept secrets of the US Air Force, it's an unparalleled academic and STEM driven program! It provides all of our members with rewarding opportunities to transform from today's cadets to tomorrow's aerospace leaders and develop professional citizen volunteers!
We are the Civil Air Patrol, 45th Composite Squadron located at March ARB, California.
Civil Air Patrol is the official auxiliary of the United States Air Force, chartered by Congress on December 1st, 1941.
The 45th Composite Squadron was chartered in 1957 making it the oldest unit on March ARB.
As a composite squadron, we have BOTH a cadet program for ages 12 to 18 (can stay a Cadet until age 21) and an adult program, 18 and up with no age limit!
We meet weekly on base on Monday nights, 1830-2100 (6:30pm - 9:00pm) as well as many weekend events and more!
