As Chinooks move troops, fuel, and needed supplies around the battlefield, it's imperative these crews can engage the enemy and protect their cargo.

The Army honored the families of Pvt. Robert D. Booker and Staff Sgt. Stevon A. Booker — the two heroic Soldiers the new M10 Booker Combat Vehicle is named after — during a dedication ceremony at Aberdeen Proving Ground on April 18, 2024.
This historic event marked the first vehicle named in honor of fallen Soldiers since 2002. Adding to its uniqueness, two heroes and their families with the same surname are honored, brought together in time by self-sacrifice.
The ceremony recognized the families of enlisted Army Soldiers who served the nation selflessly during times of great conflict — Medal of Honor recipient Pvt. Robert D. Booker, who perished in World War II; and Distinguished Service Cross recipient Staff Sgt. Stevon A. Booker, who died from injuries sustained in Operation Iraqi Freedom.
