    The U.S. Army Marksmanship Unit inducted Lt. Col. (retired) Wanda Jewell in the USAMU Hall of Fame during a ceremony on Oct. 13, 2023.

    The Olympic Bronze Medalist served on both active duty and Reserve status as an instructor/shooter in both 10m air rifle and 50m Three-Position Rifle, in which she won her Olympic medal. This Soldier competed in seven consecutive World Shooting Championships, three Pan American Games and one Championships of the Americas. Jewell, who also earned the Distinguished International Shooter Badge, holds the distinction of being the first woman in history to win two World Championship titles at the same competition when she won both the 10m Air Rifle and Three-Position Rifle Champion titles at the 1978 World Shooting Champion in Seoul.
