Actually, as a few wise loremasters reminded me, the first captain of the 
Enterprise was Robert April, who commanded that good ship during her 
shakedown cruise.  The First officer, however, was George Kirk (you got 
it--Jim Kirk's father).  To add another bit of trivia to this massively 
off--topic email, we fiind this out as Jim Kirk reads letters sent to him 
as a youth from his dad while Kirk Jr. is on leave, shortly after the 
death of Edith Keeler (City on the Edge of Forever).

If we could possibly get more off topic, let me know.  Still, I hope this 
brings at least a little pleasure to some of you.

Trivia question:  The United Space Ship Enterprise's second captain was 
James T. Kirk.  Who was her first captain?  Extra credit:  What does the 
"T" in Kirk's name stand for?  The first captain (other than Robert April 
who served for a short time as Enterprise's captain during her shakedown 
cruise) to command Enterprise after its commissioning was Christopher 
Pike, played by Jeffrey Hunter in the dual episode entitled "Menagerie," 
which was cobbled together from scenes taken here and there from the 
pilot, called "The Cage."  The "T" in James "T." Kirk stands for 
"Tiberias."
