Eric L., Team Alaska

I have enjoyed a 10 year career thus far with the US Coast Guard.  While Civil Engineer by trade, I recently shifted to the role of Base Executive Officer in Ketchikan, Alaska.  I am glad to be back in Alaska after serving my first tour in Kodiak aboard the mighty CGC ALEX HALLEY formerly the USS EDMENTON. I have been involved with the SEALs for Sunshine event since 2015.  It was during that event that Mike Wisecup forced me to ask a girl out that was taking photos of us.  We’ve been together 5 years and are glad to be involved for another S4S event. Camp Sunshine is an amazing camp who’s work helps hundreds of families every year.  We feel strongly in supporting the only camp of its kind where whole families receive the “treatment” of friendship, peer support, and bereavement counseling rather than just the sick child.  If you’d rather hang out with a puddle pirate than a bunch of Navy SEALs, join Team Alaska to help send military families who are working day to day to support our freedoms all while taking care of an ill child.
