Two Military Guest Authors will virtually speak Thursday, August 19 at 3:30pm
George Wallace
George Wallace will be joining us via Zoom to speak about submarine operations. He will also share stories about the filming of Hunter Killer with Gerard Butler. Born and raised in Eastern Ohio, Commander Wallace received his commission in the US Navy and a degree in engineering from The Ohio State University. After the obligatory and memorable interview with Admiral Rickover, he was accepted into the nuclear power and submarine communities. He served on two of Admiral Rickover’s famous “Forty One for Freedom”, the USS John Adams SSBN 620 and the USS Woodrow Wilson SSBN 624, during which time he made nine one-hundred-day deterrents patrols through the height of the Cold War.
