He came up with the idea to help wounded warriors and began planning the project a year ago. The Occupational Therapy Clinic and Lowe’s Home Improvement Store donated the building materials. With the help of more than 20 friends, family members, schoolmates and fellow scouts, he completed the building phase in 20 hours over three weekends. Cole is the son of Capt. Peter Roberts, former director for Surgical Services and current Deputy Commander of Task Force Medical South and the XO for the NATO Role 3 hospital in Afghanistan, and Lisa Roberts who works in the Pulmonary Clinic.
