On this date, two small town boys, Ken Bonner, Jr., and his brother Calvin Bonner decided to venture out on their own and with their father Ken Sr., started Triple B Oilfield Service, Inc. Purchasing a used one ton truck and retrofitting a trailer, they set out to become the best in the business for roustabout services in the oilfield industry. Within two months of operation, the company had to increase its staffing; and purchased another truck to support the amount of business that they were conducting. It was through hard work, and their commitment to excellence, Triple B Oilfield Service, Inc. generated sales revenues of over $700,000 for the year in less than five months of operation.
