Holly Graf
Holly Ann Graf is a retired Captain in the United States Navy. Until January 2010 she was commanding officer of the ''Ticonderoga''-class guided missile cruiser USS ''Cowpens'' (CG-63), a major surface combatant vessel of the fleet. She was the first woman to command a cruiser in the history of the U.S. Navy. Earlier, she had been the first woman in the U.S. Navy to command a destroyer when she served as skipper of the guided missile destroyer USS ''Winston S. Churchill'' (DDG-81). Her personal decorations include the Legion of Merit and the Bronze Star, among others. ==Early life== Graf grew up in Simsbury, Connecticut to a family with a long history of naval service. Her father is a retired Captain and Submarine Officer in the U.S. Navy, and her sister, Robin L. Graf, is currently a Rear Admiral (LH) in the Navy Reserve. Graf graduated from the United States Naval Academy in 1985. Most of her colleagues at the time believed she was well on her way to flag rank. She holds a Master of Arts degree in National Security and Strategic Studies from the Naval War College and an additional Master's degree in civil engineering from Villanova University.
