                        REMEMBERING NATHAN CLARK

 Mrs. BLACKBURN. Mr. President, last month Tennessee lost a 
great man, community leader, and champion of our State's military 
community: Mr. Nathan Clark.

[[Page S88]]

  For more than 20 years, Mr. Clark served as a store manager for 
Lowe's in Clarksville, TN, always looking for ways to give back to the 
community, including to the brave men and women who serve at Fort 
Campbell. Over the years, he spearheaded several major improvement 
projects on the base, including the complete restoration of the Night 
Stalker Remembrance Trail, which honors the fallen warriors of the 
160th Special Operations Aviation Regiment; the revitalization of 
Gabriel Field, the sacred ground honoring the fallen of the 5th Special 
Forces Group; and the transformation of the Survivor Outreach Services 
building, a place of solace and support for families who have lost 
loved ones in service to our Nation.
  For his dedicated support for our servicemembers, Mr. Clark was 
honored with the titles of Tennessee Colonel Aide de Camp, Kentucky 
Colonel, and Champion of Fort Campbell.
  On behalf of all Tennesseans, I extend my heartfelt condolences to 
Mr. Clark's family, including his wife Marcia and their children 
Madison, Montgomery, and Callie. While our State has lost a great 
leader, Mr. Clark's legacy will endure in Clarksville and at Fort 
Campbell for generations to come.
