WRIGHT-PATTERSON AIR FORCE BASE, Ohio --  


Rank/Name:
Tech. Sgt. Jamie A. Pope

Unit:
87th Aerial Port Squadron

Duty Title:
NCOIC Orderly Room

Hometown:
West Liberty, Ohio

Civilian Job:
Independent provider (assist individuals with developmental disabilities)

Hobbies:
My favorite hobby is hanging out with my two children. Being a mother is the greatest blessing one could receive, they are my world! We are very family oriented so every weekend you will find us having cookouts and playing volleyball, kickball and softball with family and friends.

Education:
Currently studying for my Community College of the Air Force degree in Human Resources

Career Goal:
To get my CCAF degree and retire as a chief master sergeant. Somewhere along my journey I would love to serve as a first sergeant. I hope by the end of my career I will have inspired my fellow airman to be driven to succeed in their own definition of success. I want to instill in each to know their importance (in the Air Force, within their families, and in life in general). I want to make a positive impact in others as my role models and mentors have me.

What you like about working at the 445th?
 I love how the 445th overall has an open door policy, we truly work as a team! Without being able to professionally and effectively communicate with each other we as a wing would not be sufficiently completing our mission. Everyone has always been willing to listen and offer out a helping hand.

Why did you join the Air Force?
 I joined the active duty Air Force in 2005 because thats what I felt like I needed to do. It wasn't because of past family members or education it was simply having pride for my country and wanting to serve. I wanted a change of pace in life and I most definitely got it! I have truly love every minute of being in the military and embrace each opportunity given to me.
