Yuma Composite Squadron 508

 

Integrity - Volunteerism - Excellence - Respect


"SEMPER VIGILANS"  

United States Civil Air Patrol "Performing Missions For America"


Formed on December 1st, 1941, the Civil Air Patrol (CAP) is the official Auxiliary of the United States Air Force. CAP has since grown to over 1,500 squadrons, 600 aircraft, 980 vehicles, and 57,000 adult and youth volunteers. CAP conducts 90% of search and rescue flights within the continental U.S...but it's not just about flying! 

Most of us are not pilots; however we perform a variety of other equally important volunteer duties in support of CAP's three primary missions:

  Aerospace Education       Cadet Programs       Emergency Services    

Based at the Yuma International Airport, Squadron 508 is a composite unit consisting of Cadets (12 to 18 years old) and Senior Members (18 years and older). We actively participate in community events, air and ground SAR training and missions, cadet orientation flights, leadership training, aerospace education activities  AE Blog , and much more. We have a special  AE Member Program  for teachers too.

If you are looking for a challenging way to serve your local community, state, and nation: come visit us  Wednesdays (6:30pm-8:30pm)  and find out how you can join the Civil Air Patrol and be part of the Squadron 508 team!
