Mission

Presente the ANG’s premier Engineer force for any domestic or contingency situation.

Vision

Lay the foundation for the 21st‐Century PRANG!

Priorities

- Assure the Mission - Be Ready for War - Care for our teammates, families, island, and ourselves - Develop leaders, engineers, and warriors

CIVIL ENGINEER SQUADRON

2020 was a year that the PRANG survived Hurricanes, Droughts, Fires, Floods, and Earthquakes, not to mention the COVID-19 Pandemic. Many of us have lost friends, family, and loved ones along the way. Even more have lost jobs, opportunities, and endured other sacrifices. We have taken care of the mission, the base, and each other. The resilience of the PRANG is second-to-none, in large part because of hard work, dedication, and achievements of our Airmen. We should be proud that no matter the crisis, great or small, CES was always there,

Fortified & Ready.
