Forrestal, former U.S. defense secretary, plunged to his death from the 16th floor of national naval medical center in Washington. FORRESTAL had been under treatment for "operational fatigue" since April 2. Attendant physicians said he had been considering suicide, that the nature of his malady indicated this mental condition as an inescapable adjunct to it. But they felt he was getting better; in fact they had hoped to release him from the hospital in 30 days. As secretary of defense, Forrestal labored under a burden such as few national servants have carried. His was the job of directing the gigantic naval program during the war, as well as the almost hopeless task of attempting unification of the armed forces.
