I take inspiration from Admiral David Farragut, who was captain of his own naval vessel by the age of 12 during the (US) War of 1812. "Farragut was 12 years old when, during the War of 1812, he was given the assignment to bring a ship captured by the USS Essex, safely to port.[5] He was wounded and captured while serving on the Essex during the engagement at Valparaiso Bay, Chile against the British on March 28, 1814." http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/David_Farragut http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/David_Farragut
