In July, CAPT Carlton “Angus” McDonald ’47 USN Ret gave us an comprehensive overview of today’s WA State/USA power status and provided interesting insight into his recommendations on curbing climate change and the types of power we need for the future. Angus commanded nuclear submarines. He was the Gold crew CO of the USS Ulysses Grant SSBN 631. He was in charge of all sea trials for both crews before launching her in 1963. After leaving the Navy in 1970, Angus had a distinguished civilian career at Exxon Nuclear Company in Bellevue, WA and with the Washington Public Power Supply System.
