When Cody Becker, from Kenosha, Wisconsin, reported to Fort Carson in January 2008, he expected to be trained and then deployed to participate in an overseas operation. He had no way to know how his life would be changed over the next several months.

On March 3, 2008, Pvt. Cody Becker was participating in training operations at Fort Carson. The vehicle he was riding in rolled over crushing his spine resulting in paralyzing him from his chest down, but still having full movement of his arms.

During a presentation on September 19th, 2008 at 5:00 P.M. on the north side of the Medal of Honor Park in front of the Pueblo Convention Center, Pvt. Becker will be presented an iBOT Mobility System (www.ibotnow.com) that will significantly improve his mobility. The iBOT provides unique maneuverability through its multi-mode system, unlike any wheelchair. It provides (1) standard wheelchair functions, (2) 4-wheel Function for uneven terrain, (3) Balance function for increased reach and interaction at eye-to-eye, and (4) Stair Function to go up or down stairs.

This is the first such presentation of an iBOT in Colorado by the America's Huey 091 Foundation, Inc. (www.huey091foundation.org) and its supporting organizations.
