47 REDSTONE ARSENAL, Ala. Col. John Motszko was an infant when his uncle James Schueler returned from his tour of duty in Vietnam.
Even so, Uncle Jim’s wartime service has inspired Motszko throughout this military career.
“His service has always been a point of pride for me,” Motszko said. “During deployments and training, I always knew no matter how difficult things would get for me, he had survived far worse.”
Motsko’s 28 years of Army service includes multiple deployments to Iraq and other locations in the Middle-East, and to Bosnia. He has also served as the commander of Headquarters and Headquarters Company 16th Special Troops Battalion in Baumholder, Germany. Currently, Motszko is the military deputy for Army Materiel Command’s Human Resources (G-1). His uncle is among several family members of AMC Headquarters employees who are being recognized through AMC’s Vietnam Veteran Commemoration Program.
