Nathanael Wrye, was awarded the Silver ROTC Medal from the Sons of the
American Revolution, presented by Roger Koeninger.
As a first year
Cadet in the ROTC program and Electrical Engineering Major at Cal Poly, Cadet
Wrye has expressed a high degree of motivation and shown the qualities for
future leadership success in the future.
Throughout his first year in the program Cadet Wrye maintained a GPA of
3.96 in the five Military Science courses he has taken. He completed the entire
MSL 100 series courses, Orienteering, and Military History. His dedication to the program and the Army
places him well above his peers in the program by completing a majority of the
overall course work in his first year.
Cadet Wrye
attended both the fall and spring FTX opportunities given through the
program. His dedication to duty and
personal courage allowed him to excel through the numerous obstacles and
missions that were completed throughout the two weekend training events. He consistently steps forward to assist and
volunteer in any portion of the program.
As a first year
student, Cadet Wrye took the challenge of competing for a spot on the nine
person Ranger Challenge team that would compete with five other major schools
in the area. Due to an injury to his
hand he was unable to participate with the team that eventually won the
competition. Even though he was injured,
Cadet Wrye still received numerous peer votes to be a member of the team. This only proves that he is respected by his peers
due to his sense of duty.
The Sons of the American Revolution (SAR) is a historical, educational,
and patriotic society of men descended from ancestors who supported the cause
of American Independence during the years 1774-1783.
