TRIREEFFAC-KB Plank Owner: Samuel Clark, Jr.
TRIDENT Refit Facility - Kings Bay
Dec. 20, 2024 | 1:30
A "Plank Owner" is someone who was a member of the crew (or an employee) of a ship (or organization) when that ship (or organization) was officially commissioned, or in the case of TRIDENT Refit Facility, Kings Bay (TRIREEFFAC-KB), when it achieved its planned Initial Operational Capability (IOC) on September 30, 1989.

TRIREEFFAC-KB marked its 35th Anniversary in 2024. We are not sure how many original Plank Owners there were, but we do know this core group of "Pioneers" paved the way for the outstanding organization that TRIREFFAC-KB has become today!

Samuel Clark Jr., a Production Controller in the Repair Department, remembers the top-quality people and mechanics who came from around the country to help build TRIREFFAC-KB from the ground up; and the great pride and honor he felt in supporting the TRIREFFAC-KB mission getting submarines ready to support the nation’s defense.
