When you think of a Miss America contestant, a military sergeant and archery expert may not be the first woman who comes to mind.
Theresa Vail is here to change all that. 'If there is one thing that competing has taught me, it’s that you need to be unapologetically yourself and not let others dictate how you feel,' she wrote in a May 25 post on her personal blog.
Vail, who is competing as Miss Kansas, is a member of the Kansas Army National Guard’s Medical Detachment. She's also a skydiver, boxer and advocate for young girls.
Here are five things you should know about her.
1. She won't be covering up her tattoos during the competition. Vail has tattoos of the Serenity Prayer and a military medical insignia, and she has decided to display them proudly during the swimsuit round. In an August 22 blog post, Vail wrote:
Why am I choosing to bear my tattoos? Reference A; my platform! Empowering women to OVERCOME stereotypes and break barriers. What a hypocrite I would be if I covered the ink. With my platform, how could I tell other women to be fearless and be true to themselves if I can’t do the same?... I am who I am, tattoos and all.
2. She used to race motorcycles, and only stopped after breaking all the fingers in her right hand. She wants to become a dentist, which requires flexible fingers.
3. She's fluent in Chinese. The Kansas State University senior is.

This Sunday's Miss America pageant will be a little different from past years.
For the first time in history, a contestant will expose her tattoos during the bikini portion of the competition.
Theresa Vail looks the beauty pageant queen part, but is different than one would expect.
That bold contestant is Miss Kansas, Sgt. Theresa Vail, who also happens to be the second contestant in the military to compete in Miss America.
Vail, 23, will be breaking a long-standing taboo with her two giant tattoos - the insignia for the U.S. Army Dental Corps on her left shoulder and the Serenity Prayer running down her right side.
'Why am I choosing to bear my tattoos? My whole platform is empowering women to overcome stereotypes and break barriers,' the Miss America hopeful explains to People magazine. 'What a hypocrite I would be if I covered my ink. How can I tell other women to be fearless and true to themselves if I can't do the same?'
Much of Vail's confidence comes from being an expert M16 marksman, a skydiver, a boxer, a mechanic, fluent Chinese speaker, and a bow hunter who can skin a deer and apparently cooks a mean squirrel stew - skills not usually associated with beauty queens.
'4:30 am workout...adapt and overcome! #ThereSheIs #MissAmerica #ArmyStrong' Vail tweeted last month.
'Nobody expects a soldier to be a beauty

A 20-year-old Boston University sophomore and a self-described 'cellist-nerd' brought the Miss Universe crown back to the United States for the first time in more than a decade when she won the televised contest Wednesday.
Olivia Culpo beat out 88 other beauty queens from six continents at the Planet Hollywood casino on the Las Vegas Strip to take the title from outgoing champion Leila Lopes of Angola.
Culpo wore a tight navy blue mini-dress with a sequined bodice as she walked on stage for the competition's opening number. Later in the night, she strutted in a purple and blue bikini, and donned a wintery red velvet gown with a plunging neckline.
Culpo's coronation ends a long losing spell for the U.S. in the competition co-owned by Donald Trump and NBC. An American had not won the Miss Universe title since Brook Lee won in 1997.
No one seemed more surprised than Culpo's family, who 'looked at her like she had three heads' when told them she was entering the Miss Rhode Island contest last year, her father Peter recalled.
'We didn't know a thing about pageants,' he said.
She won that contest in a rented $20 dress with a hole in it and then began working out, dieting, and studying current events on flashcards to compete for the Miss USA crown.
Culpo was good enough during preliminary Miss Universe contests to be chosen as one of 16 s
