Enjoying the Game Sgt. Robbie Gaupp, an Army veteran from Fort Hood, Texas, smiles during the Nov. 20, 2014, Joint Services Sitting Volleyball Tournament.
While on assignment with Operation Jumpstart, Gaupp shattered his shoulder helping border patrol agents along the U.S.-Mexico border. An avid adaptive sports athlete, he was a member of Team USA at the International Paralympic Committee World Championships in 2013.
