Sgt. Joseph E. Robsky Jr. became a specialist in defusing bombs to help
save civilians from the horrors of war.
“He was in Bosnia,” said his mother, Bonnie Robsky. “He
saw children with their arms and legs off, and he said that if he could prevent any of that from happening, he would.”
Robsky, 31, who grew up in Claverack, N.Y., died Sept. 10 when a bomb
he was trying to disable exploded. He went to Iraq after spending two years at Fort Irwin.
Robsky served with the Marines for four years after graduating from high
school. He was in the Reserves before joining the Army.
“I’m proud of him and loved him very much,” his mother
said. “I knew that he was happy with what he did. He always loved life and always wanted to help.”
