JBPHH PAO Focal Points:
PHOTO STUDIO: We support all tenant commands of JBPHH and surrounding agencies if needed. The photo studio is open Tuesday - Thursday from 0800 to 1100 with 30-minute time slots. At this time, we are not accepting walk-ins, and appointments are on a first come-first serve basis. Services include official portraits for awards, packages, and passports. For other inquiries or more information, please see below for contact information.
MEDIA/PHOTO ESCORTS: We count on our ‘temporary’ help for a lot of these – a little OJT training on what to look out for, etc. combined with reading the SOP that is on the shared drive.
-
Local/national news organizations for real world/news events
-
Historic partners support requests: photo shoots/interviews/news reporting/events for: USS Missouri Museum; Pearl Harbor Aviation Museum; NOAA; National Park Service/Pacific Historic Parks
TV/FILM INDUSTRY SUPPORT: After NAVINFO West or NRH Media OPS work up a project, the JB folks (and NRH team as available) usually have it for action. This includes:
-
Scouting locations (gleaned w/phone calls and meetings if possible): MC1 at one point had thought about collecting a folder of the typical locations asked about for projects, i.e., USS Missouri Memorial, Nob Hill, Hospital Point, etc. He thought it might help streamline the scouting process.
-
Base access coordination: Working w/the projects locations manager, JB team collects and submits all base access requests. It’s extra work – but it keeps Pass and ID from being overwhelmed with a project while taking care of routine requests (the project goes through our office).
-
Execution – base access/escorts as needed; base camp set-up; monitoring of base camp and shooting locations; final inspection of all areas used after project completion.
COMMUNITY RELATIONS:
-
Monthly COMREL White Boat/Harbor Tour (around the 3rd Thursday of every month). JB team coordinates with NPS/AZ Boat Detachment; organizes or solicits an interested primary ‘group’ then backfills with standing requests/groups
-
Assists Environmental PAO with cleanup (Fish ponds, Ahua Reef)
-
Make-a-Wish/Dream Foundation visits (average four to six a year)
-
Coordinate support for ship/sub tours (with MIDPAC OPS and SUBPAC PAO); base tours as available
SCHOOL LIAISON OFFICER:
-
Coordinate any school/JROTC visits
-
Base access coordination/escort as needed (SECNAV 5512s collected and submitted)
-
Itineraries built from base commands and tenant organizations
-
Reservations for school visits to the historic partners (usually part of a larger tour/JROTC group)
CEREMONY COORDINATION:
-
While the USAF Band of the West and PACFLT bands both have operations desks, as do both honor guards/color guards, our JB team routinely passes requests received as a courtesy heads-up. We are usually asked to confirm those units’ support
-
INDOPACOM TASKORD coordination. Again – both bands/color guards are monitoring, but we always are requested by PACFLT/INDOPACOM for confirmation of support for those events.
-
In addition to the week’s events around 07 DEC, we occasionally design/execute ceremonies. We played a big part in both JBPHH and CNRH change of command ceremonies; support and execute NRH and JBC ceremonies/groundbreakings/ribbon-cuttings/proclamations.
SUPPORT FOR TENANT COMMANDS/ORGANIZATIONS:
-
NOAA and FAA occasionally look to us to help coordinate base access for visitors or events. NOAA does have a list of duty escorts because of the need to rapidly escort news teams to the IRC in real-world emergencies (hurricanes/tsunamis). FAA does not have that capability, and occasionally requests base access coordination for school groups
DV/VIP escort support for INDOPACOM and PACFLT (i.e., we escort the RIMPAC DV Embarks to the flight line terminal rather than submit base access requests).
