This episode will begin at the beginning, with the United States Navy before there even was a United States of America, back when we were a group of 13 colonies using a motley alliance of state navies, the Continental Navy, privateers and the navies of our European allies to win our independence and defeat the globe-spanning, indisputably greatest naval power on earth at the time, the Royal Navy.
You will hear about John Paul Jones' raid on the English coast and his battle against the HMS Serapis, where he fought a British warship which outclassed his in every way, except for the one that mattered in the end, the will of her captain to fight.
