What rank did Richard Nixon eventually reach in the U.S. Navy?
If I have read this right, he was promoted to Commander in the Naval Reserve on 1 June 1953. Please see the http://www.history.navy.mil/faqs/faq60-8.htm, this statement is almost at the end of the article, it is a neat article because it give a time line of his naval career, I thought it was nice because at the end it stated this 9 JAN 1913 Born in Yorba Linda, California 15 JUN 1942 Appointed Lieutenant (junior grade) in U.S.
