After running aground before the engagement, the frigate ''President'', now severely damaged, tried to break out of New York Harbor but was intercepted by a British squadron of four warships and forced to surrender. ''President'' was part of a small squadron created in New York with the purpose of breaching the British blockade and attacking British shipping. Strikingly, every ship of the squadron succeeded in doing so but the ''President''. ==Prelude== At the time of the battle Commodore Stephen Decatur commanded ''President''. In 1812, while in command of the frigate USS ''United States'', he had captured the British frigate in a famous action. After his return, the British instituted a strict blockade of the American coast. In 1813, Decatur tried to break out of New York in ''United States'' and USS ''Macedonian'' (which had been taken into the United States Navy), but encountered a powerful British squadron which drove him into New London, Connecticut. To lighten the two frigates sufficiently to tow them far enough upriver to be safe from British cutting-out expeditions, they were effectively hulked, or demilitarized.〔Forester, p.142〕 Decatur tried to break out in ''United States'' in early 1814, but turned back when he feared that pro-British local civilians (the so-called Blue light federalists) were burning lights to alert the blockaders.〔(Military History online article )〕 Decatur and the crew of ''United States'' were transferred to ''President'', which had been refitted in New York. (The crew of the ''Macedonian'' were transferred to the Great Lakes.) 抄文引用元・出典: フリー百科事典『 ウィキペディア（Wikipedia）』 ■ウィキペディアで「Capture of USS President」の詳細全文を読む スポンサード リンク 翻訳と辞書 : 翻訳のためのインターネットリソース Copyright(C) kotoba.ne.jp 1997-2016.
