E&E Industries, CLARK’s San Diego-area dealer, was named CLARK’s 2025 New Dealer of the Year earlier this year.
The visit included a private tour of the nuclear-powered aircraft carrier, led by Capt. Schrum – a former U.S. Naval Academy teammate of Harris who recently completed command of the USS Theodore Roosevelt and previously served as executive officer aboard the Carl Vinson.
“Walking the flight deck of a nuclear-powered carrier with two Navy leaders—one retired, one active—was an unforgettable experience and a powerful reminder of the dedication, precision, and teamwork required to operate at that level,” Moratz said.
Fernando Harris, a retired Navy officer and 1996 U.S. Naval Academy graduate, said: “We are proud to partner with CLARK and deeply honored that Chuck took time to visit our team. Sharing the Carl Vinson with him and Captain Schrum – two leaders I greatly admire – was a privilege, and it reinforced the shared values of service, discipline and excellence that define both our companies.”
Harris also thanked Capt. Joshua Wenker, commanding officer of the Carl Vinson and a U.S. Naval Academy Class of 1999 graduate, “for allowing us to tour the ship and sharing the history of the carrier and its namesake with us.”
Moratz, a U.S. Military Academy at West Point graduate, called the experience a highlight of his west coast dealer tour and thanked the entire E&E Industries team for their partnership and hospitality.
