Robert Chambers

April is Volunteer Appreciation Month. Each day we will put one of our valued volunteers in the spotlight as a way of saying thank you!

Dr. Robert Chambers, retired Chief of Pathology at Suburban Hospital and a behind-the-scenes volunteer at the Air and Space Museum, helped prepare more than 45 spacesuits for shipment to the Udvar-Hazy Center in time to coincide with the arrival of the space shuttle there.
