One person truly can make a difference. Paul Hafen has influenced the way the airspace is managed not just over Fort Sill, but also over neighboring Lawton and Duncan as well. It is because of his dedication to the airfield's mission and knowledge of regulations that Fort Sill's air traffic controllers can monitor the skies surrounding post so training can happen without interruption.
Paul has also worked with the Federal Aviation Administration to expand the allowable user airspace for Fort Sill which enables UAV training and the use of lasers and directed energy here.
He is a quiet professional who has served at Henry Post Army Airfield for 20 years and he is retiring next month. His ingenuity will be missed, but it will still be felt in Fort Sill's every day operations.
