U. S. Grant Sharp Jr.

Ulysses Simpson Grant Sharp, Jr. (April 2, 1906 – December 12, 2001) was a United States Navy four star admiral who served as Commander in Chief, United States Pacific Fleet (CINCPACFLT) from 1963 to 1964; and Commander-in-Chief, United States Pacific Command (CINCPAC) from 1964 to 1968. He was PACOM commander during the Gulf of Tonkin Incident. Sharp was related to Ulysses S. Grant, who married Sharp's great-aunt.〔(U.S. Oliver, Myrna. Grant Sharp, 95; Admiral, Vocal Critic of Vietnam Strategy ) Los Angeles Times, December 17, 2001.〕〔(Christopher Marquis. Ulysses S.

==Military career==
Sharp was born in Chinook, Montana, and named for Ulysses S. Grant, who had married his father's aunt. Raised in Fort Benton, Montana,〔(The Imperturbable Admiral, TIME Magazine August 14, 1964 )〕 he graduated from the United States Naval Academy in 1927. He is also a 1950 graduate of the Naval War College.
During World War II, he commanded the destroyer in the Pacific Theater, earning two Silver Stars. By the Korean War, he was commanding a destroyer squadron, assisting in the planning of the Inchon landing. He served as deputy chief of naval operations for policy and planning in the early 1960s.
After receiving his fourth star, Sharp took command of the Pacific Fleet in 1963, followed by command of Pacific Command. During his tenure, due to the Tonkin Gulf Incident, the U.S. increased its presence in Vietnam after the passage of the Gulf of Tonkin Resolution. Sharp views on U.S. strategy in the war, namely massive military action, differed sharply with the Johnson administration's preference for a gradual buildup of forces. Sharp was featured on the August 14, 1964, cover of TIME Magazine.
