He retired from active duty in 2016 after serving seven years in the U.S. Navy. Fischer\u2019s last job was as a missile technician on the USS Ohio, a nuclear-powered submarine.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Then, a traumatic brain injury forced him into medical retirement. Fischer went from being part of a tightly knit, high-performing crew to being sidelined into the isolated world of inpatient treatment. Fischer turned to video games \u2013 first as a distraction, then as a way to connect with others during his long hours in the hospital.<\/p>\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-smg-jwplayer-video\"><atype-video-jwplayer nostick=\"true\" playlisturl=\"https:\/\/cdn.jwplayer.com\/v2\/playlists\/fCzRqMW8?tags=8a49228c-d7bb-4c38-a714-66d6220662ef\" poster=\"\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/08\/video-poster-8a49228c-d7bb-4c38-a714-66d6220662ef.jpg\" aspectratio=\"16 \/ 9\" mute autostart=\"false\"><\/atype-video-jwplayer><figcaption class=\"wp-element-caption\">\u201cPlaying with the community is totally something that helps people get outside of themselves and feel connected to other people,\u201d Fischer said.<\/figcaption><\/figure>\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">\u201cPlaying with the community is totally something that helps people get outside of themselves and feel connected to other people,\u201d Fischer said. He eventually came across <a href=\"https:\/\/stackup.org\/\">Stack Up<\/a>, a nonprofit that helps service members get through deployments to combat zones and recover from traumatic injuries through the power of video games.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">\u201cWith Stack Up, it\u2019s run by veterans. And you know it,\u201d Fischer said. \u201cYou feel welcomed. You don\u2019t feel like you\u2019re an outsider.\u201d<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Fischer is the second of four veterans and gamers to be featured in a series in Military Times over the next two months. The series runs alongside a fundraising campaign by <a href=\"https:\/\/wargaming.com\/en\/\">Wargaming<\/a>, the developer of World of Warships and other online games, and Stack Up.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Already, World of Warships gamers have raised $90,000 for Operation Lifeboat \u2013 putting the campaign very close to its $100,000 goal in just the first two weeks. The proceeds come from the sale of two limited-edition in-game bundles called Life Line and Life Ring, which includes special missions, exclusive items, and permanent power-ups within the World of Warships online game. The entire proceeds of each $12 Life Line bundle and $30 Life Ring bundle go to Stack Up\u2019s Overwatch Program, one of the programs by which Stack Up supports service members and civilians. The bundle will remain on sale through the end of April.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">\u201cThe response among our players to Operation Lifeboat has been tremendous so far,\u201d said Artur Plociennik, Regional Publishing Director for World of Warships. \u201cWe\u2019re extremely gratified by our community\u2019s immense generosity, and we\u2019re eager to see how much we can raise to help more veterans and active duty service members like Chad.\u201d<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Although $100,000 may not seem like a lot of money, it would help Stack Up pay for a year of continuous overnight support, said Mathew Bergendahl, Manager of Stack Up\u2019s Overwatch Program. Bergendahl noted that evenings are particularly busy times for counselors, with peak hours spanning 6 p.m. to midnight.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">\u201cI know so many veterans who have isolated themselves, who do not have the outside contact as much as they should,\u201d Fischer said. \u201cThat\u2019s a pretty big reason why Stack Up exists.\u201d<\/p>\n","protected":false},"author":7,"featured_media":60863,"menu_order":0,"template":"single-native-legacy","meta":{"_acf_changed":false,"_acf":"","_yoast_wpseo_primary_category":"15"},"advertiser":[3451],"class_list":["post-46067","native","type-native","status-publish","has-post-thumbnail","hentry","advertiser-wow"],"acf":{"subheadline":"","legacy_arc_id":"AMTPJ63F7RDNFBSDXFLL766LPY","arc_canonical_url":"\/native\/wow\/2020\/03\/17\/playing-for-a-cause-meet-us-navy-veteran-chad-fischer\/","remove_feature_photo":false,"is_sponsored":false,"subtype":"native-layout","redirect_url":"","disable_inline_ads":false,"native_logo_pretext":"Presented
