Step into the captivating life story of Robert Kelly, a man whose unwavering commitment to duty and honor led him on a remarkable journey from the heartland of Starford, Pennsylvania to the elite ranks of the United States Naval Special Warfare and then to the United States Marshals Service.

In "Pushing the Rock up the Hill," Robert Kelly takes us on an extraordinary autobiographical voyage, chronicling his upbringing in a household steeped in the values of hard work, patriotism, and service. Growing up beneath the shadows of coal mines and within the embrace of a family that had given its all to both industry and country, young Robert felt an undeniable call to follow in the footsteps of his forefathers.

At the tender age of sixteen, driven by an unyielding sense of duty, Robert embarked on a path that would see him transform into a formidable Navy SWCC, embodying the grit and determination that had defined his lineage for generations.
