Details Behind Award
On 17 June 2006, Sergeant Rubart was wounded while clearing a possible IED on MSR Mobile. He received shrapnel wounds to his left forearm, left hand, right thigh, and right buttocks. Although wounded with a "priority" medevac status, Sergeant Rubart instructed his section to cordon the blast site and search for a potential triggerman. He grabbed his pistol and had the section corpsman assess his wounds, while the assistant Section Leader reported the incident to higher. After the corpsman assessed his wounds, Sergeant Rubart was brought to Fallujah Surgical by self-medevac of the section. Sergeant Rubart was initially given one week to recuperate and after his check-up appointment. The Regimental Aid Station recommended that Sergeant Rubart remain on limited duty for another 10 days. Sergeant Rubart declined the recommendation and returned to his section for combat operations that day with his wounds still wrapped in bandages.
