    As Maritime Forces Atlantic’s master seaman from June 2017 to September 2018, Master Seaman Charlesworth made a considerable impact on the Canadian Armed Forces. Her exceptional leadership, support and advocacy for the health, welfare and working conditions of non-commissioned members surpassed all expectations of a junior leader and led to institutional change.
