Meet Army Olympian CPT Chris Fogt


CPT Chris Fogt finished 10th in the two-man bobsled event at the 2010 Olympic Winter Games in Whistler, British Columbia, Canada, where his four-man sled, driven by U.S. Army World Class Athlete Program SGT John Napier, crashed in the four-man event. This time around, Fogt is expected to be aboard USA-1, driven by defending Olympic champion Steven Holcomb, who spent seven years in WCAP. He likely will compete in the two-man event, perhaps again with Holcomb. After competing in 2010 Winter Olympics, Fogt deployed to Iraq for one year in support of Operation Iraqi Freedom and New Dawn. He returned to America on July 4, 2011, and resumed training for the Olympics.
