Charlie Ditmars, a member of the Calvert High School (Md.) swimming team for the past four years, was named the U.S. Army Impact Player of the Month.
Ditmars was nominated for the award by Calvert swimming coach Brian Dryer.
"It's incredible for me to see him finally get recognized for all the little things that he's done for years that are just part of who he is," Dryer said. "He doesn't do it for the recognition, but for somebody to go out of their way to say, 'Hey, we see this in you,' especially coming from the [U.S. Army] with him enlisting in that, is a really big deal because this is what he wants to do with the rest of his life."
