UPAR - Unit Public Affairs Representative Program
The Public Affairs office want to tell your unit's story. To do that we need representatives in the field-people like you who are experts on your unit and mission. As a UPAR, you are the eyes and ears of your organization. You are a vital link in the commander's communication programs. You are telling the Tinker Story! UPARs are individuals most qualified, by Air Force knowledge, experience, aptitude and interest. UPARs will provide necessary support and facilities for tenant organizations, including Reserve and National Guard forces, to conduct Public Affairs activities.
