WWII ex-POW veteran receives medals, thanks ARPC professionals
Former 1st Lt. Clayton A. Nattier, a veteran bomber pilot who was held as a prisoner of war during World War II, listens to Master Sgt. Richard Grybos, NCO in charge of training and development, during his visit to the Air Reserve Personnel Center April 17, 2015, on Buckley Air Force Base, Colo. Nattier visited ARPC to receive his POW Medal among various other medals, then took time to personally meet and thank the members on the recognition service team who assisted him. Along with Grybos, other members from the ARPC recognition service team who assisted Nattier are: retired Brig. Gen. Pat Quisenberry, evaluations branch chief, Jacqueline Bing, sustainment division chief, and Master Sgt. Jeremy Bohn, pre-trained individual manpower division chief. Nattier worked in conjunction with retired Lt. Col. Kathryn Wirkus, a constituent service representative from U.S. representative Ed Perlmutter’s staff, to attain his POW Medal. A formal presentation to award the POW Medal to Nattier is currently being planned by U.S. representative Ed Perlmutter’s office. (U.S. Air Force photo/Tech. Sgt. Rob Hazelett)
