Chief Warrant Officer 5 Eric Nordby pauses for a photo, in his office, at the 85th U.S. Army Reserve Support Command in Arlington Heights, Illinois. Nordby grew up in rural north central Nebraska and studied pre-medicine before he joined the Army and started a career in law enforcement. Nordby is a graduate of Midland University in Fremont, Nebraska. Nordby worked on a missing person case in 2006, when he was a detective at the Omaha Police Department. The case involved a teenage girl named Jessica O'Grady who suddenly went missing after meeting with her boyfriend, Christopher Edwards, at his home on May 10, 2006. She had intended to tell him she was pregnant.  Nordby was assigned to the case and interviewed the suspect, Edwards. Through determination and cooperation involving multiple law enforcement agencies, Edwards was convicted of murder even though O'Grady's body was never found. Nordby is currently serves as the Command Chief Warrant Officer for the 85th U.S. Army Reserve Support Command.  (U.S. Army Reserve photo by Sgt. David Lietz)
