Forrestal

I live in Asheville, NC in the USA. I play Chess for Fun and like to move several times a day. I have taken the name of "Forrestal" for James Forrestal who was the very first US Secretary of Defense and the name-sake of the aircraft carrier (USS Forrestal CVA-59) that I served on when I was in the US Navy. The USS Forrestal was the first carrier built from the keel up to be an angled-flight-deck carrier and was as such the first "super carrier".
