Jack Schweiker Composite Squadron

Jack Schweiker Composite Squadron Welcome to the Civil Air Patrol's NJ-059! Squadron Motto: "First to Find"
[email protected] The squadron's motto is "First to Find".

Schweiker Squadron began in the 1940s as the Gloucester County Cadet Squadron and, in its' 50+ year history, has met at airports, government facilities, schools and even churches. In 1979, the squadron amended its' charter to become the Gloucester County Composite Squadron. During the 1980s, the squadron's meeting locations moved to Camden County, but retained the Gloucester County name. Early in

the 1990s, as the unit's home was now clearly Camden County, and after considering several different possibilities, the unit was renamed to honor former commander, Capt Jack Schweiker, CAP, who succumbed to a heart attack while performing a CAP Search and Rescue (SAR) mission. The squadron has been instrumental in establishing other units throughout New Jersey Wing, including: Cape May County Composite Squadron; the Camden Cadet Flight (now Atlantic County Composite Squadron), and; the Air Victory Museum Composite Squadron at South Jersey Regional Airport (VAY) in Lumberton. The squadron moved to its' current home at the Cherry Hill National Guard Armory in 1998. Jack Schweiker Composite Squadron has led the way for New Jersey Wing over its' 50 year history, and we truly think of ourselves as one of the leading Civil Air Patrol units in New Jersey Wing.
