It is with deep sadness that I tell you that SSG(R) Kelly
Keck, ATEC EEO has passed away on Thursday 13 March 2014. SSG Keck was a
Wounded Warrior; he served as a Medic at Ft Hood Taxes and was wounded after
stepping on a land mine trying to save the life of his fellow Soldiers in Afghanistan.
He lost his right leg at the knee and most of his fingers on his left hand in
the explosion. Even after all of that he still wanted to make a difference in
the Army and help Soldiers so When Kelly left the WTB he came to work for the
Army Test and Evaluation Command here at APG, MD as a DA Civilian. On 13 March
2014 he lost his fight with PTSD. Please
keep SSG (R) Kelly, Keck’s family and his ATEC family in your thoughts and
prayers.

Truly sad news.  I work at APG, but I really don't know many people outside my little group at CERDEC HQ.  My prayers for SSG (R) Keck and his family.
