The 3-142nd Assault Helicopter Battalion out of Ronkonkoma, New York posted photos Wednesday of Rensselaer Native Jacob Pratt taking part in a pinning ceremony from his hospital bed.
The post did not give any further updates on Pratt’s recovery.
Pratt was involved in a helicopter crash along the southern Texas border back on March 8.
This crash claimed the lives of two of his fellow National Guard soldiers, Chief Warrant Officer Casey Frankoski of Rensselaer and Chief Warrant Officer John Grassia of Schenectady County.
