Yesterday, after 5 years of dedicated commitment to our NAVAIR RESET contract, we had to say goodbye to a number of our employees from Camp Pendleton, CA; Cherry Point, NC; and New River, NC. These employees worked diligently to ensure contract requirements were met, and often exceeded. Their professionalism defines the company we have become.
Though it is a reality of the industry in which we work, it is never easy to watch a contract end and to have to watch dedicated employees leave the company.
We can, however, thank them for their years of hard work and exceptional performance.
And not only do we acknowledge and appreciate the commitment our employees have exhibited, but our customers do too.
Our Camp Pendleton employees were treated to a ceremony and breakfast where they were presented with Letters of Appreciation from the squadron Commanding Officer, LtCol Valdez.
Here is the Letter of Appreciation for our employees from the Commanding Officer of the Marine Medium Helicopter Training Squadron 164 at Camp Pendleton.
Once again, thank you all for everything!

One of our dedicated and hard-working employees on the VMFAT-101 contract at MCAS Miramar was recently awarded a certificate of commendation for his outstanding performance.
David Conklin was recognized for his “outstanding performance of duty as technical directive coordinator”. It was his “distinctive accomplishments, professionalism, and steadfast devotion to duty” that earned him this award.
Thank you to David for his continued dedication to his job, the U.S. Marine Corps, and PKL Services!

Our very own Mike Naylor was invited to Ramona High School to speak to NJROTC cadets about careers in the military.
Mike told the cadets stories of his own life, from living on a farm in Pennsylvania to flying Marine One for George H. W. Bush and Bill Clinton.
Mixing in a variety of life lessons and stories, Mike invited the cadets to ask themselves both what they want to be when they grow up, and also who they want to be. One of his big points was to remind the students to work hard at every job they have.
“No matter what the job, do your best until you find a job you really like. When you find a job you really enjoy then you don’t have a job you have a career.”
We thank Mike Naylor for his commitment to educating and supporting future military leaders in our community!

We are happy to share the Thanksgiving festivities that our PKL employees coordinated in Saudi Arabia. Bringing together contractors from around the world, the group celebrated a traditional Thanksgiving day and enjoyed a generous feast!
In the words of our Program Manager, Paul King:
“In cooperation with active duty Air Force personnel, we put together a Thanksgiving dinner for over 125 people on the compound. PKL employees contributed their own money to make this happen and provided set-up, tear-down and cooking for the festivities. The leads on this were Jomar Rivera Rosa and Dwight Brooks with Leo Babich and other guys pitching in. It was a great event and all American, British and French contractors on the compound shared an American tradition and raved about the event.”
Thank you to all of our dedicated and considerate PKL employees for putting together such a wonderful event!

We would like to acknowledge the hard work and dedication of our RESET contract team lead, Bobby Workman. While in Afghanistan, overseeing our team deployed there, Bobby ensured that our team adhered to tight deadlines and quality work. Bobby was personally thanked by the commanding officer of HMLA 469 for his dedication. The Commanding Officer presented Bobby with a handwritten letter of appreciation and a USMC coin.
Thank you, Bobby, for your continued dedication to and leadership of our team!

Recently, PKL acquired a second building to accommodate our Corporate staff. We are very fortunate to be a growing company and we outgrew our current headquarters building. We were able to secure another building right across the parking lot. As we processed the changes and moved people from one building to another, the inevitable question of how we would refer to each building arose. Based on geography, the new building started being referred to as PKL North. The name stuck, and now our original building is officially referred to as PKL South.

PKL Services, Inc. has grown significantly over the last 10 years! Originally founded in 2003, PKL was based at MCAS Miramar and our few staff members worked in vans on the base. At the time, we had just a few employees working in our Corporate capacity. Now we have grown to over 20 employees in our Corporate offices and we are spread over two office buildings!
We thank all of our employees, past and present, who have helped us grow successfully over the last 10 years. We look forward to a bright future and more growth ahead!
