The U.S. Army Marksmanship Unit inducted Col. (retired) Bruce Meredith into the USAMU Hall of Fame.

This USAMU alum served for 30 total years on both active and Reserve status as a shooter and coach.

The West Virginia native competed, and at times supported, in 40 nations, including five Olympics, ten World Shooting Championships, eight Pan American Games, six Championships of the Americas, eight World Crossbow Championships, and five Central American and Caribbean Games. Meredith was a teammate of some of the greatest of all time shooters, and with them, he won 65 national team championships and set 146 national records. Individually, he set 73 national records.

This prolific marksman also earned the Distinguished Rifle, Pistol and International Badges, as well as the President’s 100 Tab in both rifle and pistol.
Upon leaving active duty, Meredith continued to impact the shooting community by leading the U.S. Army Reserve International Team, which provided former USAMU shooters an opportunity to continue to excel after leaving active duty. In this capacity, he managed 84 Soldiers, many of whom became Hall of Fame inductees themselves. These Soldiers won a total of 105 medals for the United States in the Olympic Games, World Shooting Championships, Pan American Games, and the Championships of the Americas.
