Kudos to Sherri! I met her many years ago when I was first learning to shoot and she was already a many time national rifle champion. Great to see that she is using her awesome talent to be “all she can be” with the Army!
This is so exciting. I don’t even know Sherri and I’m so proud of her! You go girl!!
