OMPOSITE SQUADRON THIRTY-THREE Detachment THIRTY-TWO, is composed of Hve officers, thirty-eight enlisted men and five air- craft. The aircraft assigned to the detachment are four AD-N type and one AD-J. Although operat- ing as an individual unit, its parent squadron is located in Atlantic City, New jersey, and it is there that this and all other detachment are originated. Each officer is a qualified all-weather and night attack pilot and is trained primarily in the mis- sions of Anti-Submarine, Night Attack and Aerial Mine Laying. Daylight work is routine, but night operations are his forte. In addition to these mis- sions, the detachment provides limited utility serv- ices such as target towing for the surface vessels.
