Wing historian selected for INNERview Published Dec. 4, 2012 94th Airlift Wing Public Affairs DOBBINS AIR RESERVE BASE, Ga. -- INNERview is a special spotlight for members of Team Dobbins who don't always get recognized for their accomplishments on base and outside of the gates. If you would like to nominate someone, please call Public Affairs at (678) 655-5055 or email the editor at 94AW.PA@us.af.mil. Tech. Sgt. Jason Paseur Job Titie: 94th Airlift Wing Historian Years of service: 13 Hometown: LaFayette, Ga. What does your job entail? My primary duty is to complete an annual wing history report. Additional duties include housing and archiving historical documents and photographs related to the wing and base. Also, I provide research assistance and satisfy most requests for historical base information. What do you enjoy most about your job? Sorting through old photographs and documents related to Dobbins Air Reserve Base. Tell us a recent accomplishment you've made in your job. It isn't mine, but Master Sgt. James Holmes, my predecessor, has worked very hard the past few years and has written several annual histories to bring our program current. In the near future, I want to create and maintain a reference room that will contain everything from books, newsletters and photographs. What is your civilian occupation? I teach World History, Government and Southern Studies at Trion High School. What do you do for recreation? I have a wife, Leigh, and three children, so there is never a dull moment! We like to go camping, hunting and fishing. What's your favorite movie? It is a tie between The Gladiator and Smokey and the Bandit What advice would give someone who is interested in joining the military or junior enlisted? I believe the military is a great opportunity. I always encourage my students to join and serve their country. I may be a bit biased towards to the Air Force Reserve because I serve in it. If I could give any advice to junior enlisted, it would be to stay actively involved in their unit through their primary job as well as additional duties. What do you have planned for the holidays? To spend some quality family time and of course, quality time in a deer stand. Tell us an interesting fact about yourself. While serving active duty Air Force, I participated in the final Strategic Air Command IG inspection at Barksdale, Air Force Base, before the MAJCOM was eliminated in 1992.
