U.S. Army Staff Sgt. Carlos Techera was involved in a fatal
UH-60 Blackhawk helicopter crash while deployed to
Afghanistan in 2014. Since then, Techera has overcome
adversity to graduate from the U.S. Army Air Assault school,
U.S. Army Ranger school and competed in the 2018 U.S. Army
Best Ranger Competition.
Staff Sgt. Techera continues
to honor Jake Wykstra by teaching and motivating others to
push through adversity to accomplish their goals.
