BARKING SANDS — Capt. Timothy Young’s previous assignments include commanding officer of Provincial Reconstruction Team Paktika, Afghanistan, operations officer aboard the USS Carl Vinson (CVN 70), and assistant chief of staff for Force Readiness at Commander, Navy Air Pacific.
Young commissioned upon graduation from the University of Notre Dame in 1995 with a degree in finance and business economics. He received his Wings of Gold in 1997. During his aviation career Young logged more than 2,800 flight hours and 450 carrier landings.
The U.S. Navy’s Pacific Missile Range Facility is the world’s largest instrumented multi-environmental range, capable of supported surface, subsurface, air and space operations simultaneously.
There are over 1,100 square miles of instrumented underwater range and over 42,000 square miles of controlled airspace.
“It is abundantly clear to me that it is the professionalism, positivity attitude and talent of the entire workforce here that make PMRF stand out,” said Young.
“Absolutely none of it would be possible without the phenomenal support from the local community. I can think of no better place to be assigned, and we are truly blessed to be here.”
