Katlin VanWye is not one to seek praise. She didn't call attention to herself as a defender on the Army West Point club women's lacrosse team, and her decision to become involved in Cadets Against Sexual Harassment and Abuse (CASH/A) was not made to gain recognition.
Even after receiving the Army Achievement Medal from West Point Superintendent Lt. Gen. Robert Caslen in early March, VanWye was not sure she had done anything worthy of earning the honor.
"Every Friday, they announce someone who has done something awesome in the Corps from the 'poop deck' in the Mess Hall," VanWye says.
