A BRIEF HISTORY AND OVERVIEW OF PATRICK AFB
The Patrick Air Force base was established as the Naval Air Station Banana River in 1940. It is located on a barrier island between Cocoa Beach and Satellite Beach in Florida's Brevard County. The base was initially a subordinate of the NAS Jacksonville, Florida, and was commissioned for anti-submarine patrol along the coast of Florida, during the World War II.
The transition of the base from a Naval Air Station to a US Air Force base took place in 1948. In 1950, the base was named Patrick Air Force Base in honor of Major General, Mason Patrick. In 1971, the Defense Equal Opportunity Management Institute was established at the base.
The air force base, which hosts the 45th Space Wing (45 SW), has supported historical space rocket launches. The officers and the airmen of the 45 SW manage all the launches of unmanned rockets and satellites for the US Army, the NSA, and the NRA. The base also supports NASA, the NOAA and international clients like the European Space Agency with its scientific payload launches.
PRESENT DAY PATRICK AFB COMMUNITY
The present day Patrick Air Force Base is home around 14,717 personnel. The base has three housing areas, besides the recreational housing facilities on the beach, enlisted clubs, a commissary, two chapels, a library and other facilities that cater to the leisure and recreational needs of the members. There is also an Air Force Space and Missile Museum at Cape Carneval Ari Force Station at the base.
In addition to the deployment support and readiness programs for airmen and their families, the Patrick AFB community also hosts fitness and health programs, and recreational events, and family support services.
