Army Reserve Capt. Sean Kalletta, NU ‘17, received the Carnegie Medal on Feb. 22 for his heroic efforts on January 2, 2021.
Currently a military police officer with the 200th Military Police Command, Kalletta was on duty as a Suffolk County Police officer that day when he responded to a house fire and entered the home, saving two residents and their dogs.
Kalletta serves as commander of the 430th Military Police Detachment, 333th Military Police Brigade, on a part-time basis in a Troop Program Unit position, where he uses his Army Reserve experience to supplement his civilian career in law enforcement.
“My military career truly got its start as an Army ROTC Cadet at Norwich University, The Military College of Vermont. There I learned many things including the importance of self-discipline, physical fitness, mental toughness, academic excellence and service to others before self… I knew that the Military Police Corps was the right fit for me as an officer as I knew that I was also going to be pursuing a career in civilian law enforcement.”
Established in 1904, The Carnegie Medal honors individuals who risk their personal safety to save the lives of others.
