Retired Master Sgt. Richard C. Robertson was named as a distinguished member of the Chemical Corps during a ceremony at Fort Leonard Wood, Mo., June 26. Robertson’s injuries sustained during special operations missions forced him into retirement after more than 20 years of Army service, but he still serves as an engineering analyst where he provides insights on how combat support systems, like body armor, can be improved. The wheelchair bound honoree is also active with wounded special operators. “It’s an incredible honor for me to receive this today and I will continue to serve the Corps in any way that I can,” he said.
