Commander Bio:

Thomas Kinkaid (1888-1972) was an admiral of the U.S. Navy (1945) and the son of a naval officer. During the early stages of his career, he discovered his interest in gunnery, supported by his father's classmate, William Sims, a future admiral himself. Soon, Kinkaid became an acknowledged expert in naval gunnery and fire control. He worked as a supervisor in industrial plants where various types of armaments were produced, while alongside this serving in the corresponding divisions of the Navy Department. The ships on which he honed his skills included cruiser Indianapolis, and battleships Arizona and Colorado. During the early stages of the war against Japan, Kinkaid took part in almost all key battles in the Pacific Ocean. It took him a year to advance from cruiser squadron commander to being commander of a powerful task force that included ships of all major types. Coral Sea, Midway, Eastern Solomons, Santa Cruz Islands-in these fierce battles, new tactics where carrier aviation played a key role were being forged. At the end of 1943, Kinkaid took the lead of the renowned Seventh Fleet. In this role, having become a master of complex tactical operations, he traversed from New Guinea to the Philippines, partaking in an endless number of battles.
