Guest Speaker

Brigadier General Donald Bolduc uses his hands as he talks during a presentation The Office of Military Affairs enjoyed co-hosting Brig. Gen. Donald Bolduc, U.S. Army, Retired, and his wife, Sharon Bolduc, on Monday, March 4th. During his time at UNCW, the general and his wife enjoyed lunch at Wag (the campus dining hall), recorded an interview for the upcoming Military Seahawk Podcast, and gave a motivating talk to the baseball team.

The general (and his service dog, Victor!) shared his experiences during a dynamic and engaging talk on PTS, TBI, sleep issues, and a program he created to help his soldiers deal with all of the above. He also spoke candidly about the politics of managing a holistic program that works to address such sensitive issues.

UNCW is honored to recognize the service of our veterans, active-duty military personnel, and their families.
