Lieutenant-Commander Douglas Alan Clark (May 26, 1917 – August 6, 2012) was an American fighter pilot who received the Navy Cross for his actions while commanding Fighting Squadron THIRTY (VF-30), attached to the USS Belleau Wood (CVL-24), on 21 March 1945. While on combat air patrol he directed his squadron to attack an enemy formation of Japanese bombers which was heavily protected by fighters.
