CDR Duane Wolfe Scholarship
The CDR Duane George Wolfe Scholarship was funded in 2014. CDR Wolfe died on 5/25/09 from injuries suffered as a result of an improvised explosive device (IED) attack on his convoy southeast of Fallujah. At the time he was assigned to the U.S. Army Corps of Engineers’ Gulf Region Division in Iraq. He was the officer-in-charge of the Anbar area office, overseeing construction projects in the formerly volatile province. Most projects were for local Iraqis, including the first ever waste treatment facility for Fallujah.
A former Seabee chief who signed up in 1972, Wolfe was commissioned in 1990 and was assigned to several California-based units in his career, as well as Naval Engineering Force, Korea. This scholarship was funded by CAPT Bill Keller in memory of CDR Wolfe.

Endowed Scholarships allow our investors to build a lasting legacy, impacting Seabee children and grandchildren for generations to come. Endowed Scholarships often honor or memorialize family members, Seabee leaders, NAVFAC units, organizations or corporations. Perpetual Named scholarships can be funded at three levels, $60,000, $120,000 and $150,000 and are named by the donor.
