PATRIOT SEAL HERITAGE FOUNDATION INC

Patriot SEAL Heritage Foundation is the inspiration, vision, and passion of US Navy SEAL retired Pete (The Pirate) Carolan. Pete graduated from BUDS class 47. Among the qualities and accomplishments of a man larger than life was a desire to leave a legacy with PSHF and SEAL Rock Ranch. Pete lived a full life and accomplished many remarkable endeavors. Starting out as a lifeguard, serving in Viet Nam, and being the lead diver that rescued the Apollo 13 capsule on splash down in the sea are among the few. While on this journey he found his talent and love for art. He now has murals and paintings that live and survive throughout San Diego, the Pentagon, around the country at military installations, VFWs, Foreign Legions, Fire houses, and more. He utilized this passion and gift to promote his love of service and patriotism. We will continue in promoting/assisting veteran artists in creation, restoration, and marketing of patriotic art. His ultimate desire, and the foundation that continues, is to foster and provide a place for these outlets that served him so well and inspire the generations that follow. PSHF will work with other like-minded charities and organizations to provide events and opportunities to further these aims. We are in the process of developing "SEAL Rock Ranch" that will serve as the primary location for activities and gatherings in El Campo, CA. east of San Diego. We have a very dedicated Board of Directors that encompasses Active Duty, Retired Military, as well as civilians. The board is comprised of individuals with expertise in service, history, fundraising, non-profit management, marketing, membership, and creative design. PSHF looks passionately forward to accomplishing these goals and providing a positive future for all those who have sacrificed so much.
