Patrick Air Force Base is a United States Air Force facility located between Cocoa Beach, FL and Satellite Beach, FL. The station is part of the activities of the Cape Canaveral Air Force Station, and home to the 45th Space Wing: it was once also home to the 71st Rescue Squadron. Florida State Road A1A also runs through the base: it was shutdown for several months after the September_11%2C_2001_attacks to install security upgrades, causing 10-15 mile detours for local residents. The base is also only several feet above sea level, and is susceptible to hurricanes. In the mid 2000s, talk began of closing the base as part of the Base_Realignment_and_Closure effort: however, it was not a part of the 2005 round of cuts. == External Links == [http://www.patrick.af.mil/ Patrick AFB Website] [http://www.globalsecurity.org/military/agency/usaf/71rqs.htm 71st Rescue Squadron reference]
