CAPT PAUL JACOBS FUND
Honoring El Dorado County’s CAPT Paul Jacobs, USN who rescued 32,000 Vietnamese sailors and refugees from death and imprisonment in the final moments of the Vietnam War (considered to be the greatest humanitarian event in US Navy history), this fund provides help to members of the crew of CAPT Jacobs’ ship, USS Kirk (FF 1087), and their families, so that what they did rescuing the defenseless is never forgotten.
