On behalf of all of our squadron members, I'd like to welcome you to our website! If you are interested in the three missions of the Civil Air Patrol (cadet programs, emergency services, or aerospace education), or just curious about what we do, please have a look around.
If you are interested in joining the Pueblo Eagles Composite Squadron (as either a cadet or an adult member), please visit our recruiting center, or feel free to contact me or any of my staff listed at the right.
Visitors are always welcome! See the map below which shows our meeting location and how to find us. Our squadron meets every Thursday at 6:30 p.m. and meetings last until 9:00 p.m. No advance notice is needed, but you may wish to contact me or my staff to ensure someone will be waiting for your arrival and to give you an orientation and tour.
If you are a guest speaker who would like to address our cadets or adult members, please contact our squadron public affairs officer by sending an e-mail here.
Thank you for your interest in the Civil Air Patrol and in the Pueblo Eagles Composite Squadron! We hope to see you soon!
