How did a Naval Academy graduate move from submarines and corporate leadership to protecting the ocean and helping change conservation laws? Tune in for James D. Paulk, Jr, as he shares stories from the Naval Academy and beyond!
Born and raised in the small town of Brunswick, Georgia, James D. Paulk, Jr., graduated from Glynn Academy there, attended the military school, North Georgia College, located in the mountains of Dahlonega, Georgia, and graduated in the Class of 1957 at the United States Naval Academy in Annapolis, Maryland. He served five years on active duty and five years in the Reserve force as a Naval submarine officer. During a business career of twenty-six years with Procter and Gamble, he worked in manufacturing management before starting a business consulting company with other retirees. When he was asked to take on marine conservation projects, his life changed in a new direction. For nine years, he successfully led efforts to eliminate destructive gillnets from California, build artificial reefs, raise white seabass for release into the ocean, and wrote legislation beneficial to recreational anglers. After retiring for a second time, he began writing articles for fishing magazines and newspapers. https://www.facebook.com/profile.php?id=61565536059908
