Action of 15 September 1782

The Action of 15 September 1782 was a naval action in the mouth of the Delaware Bay in which four Royal Naval vessels under the command of the George Elphinstone pursued and attacked three French warships which included two frigates which was under the command of Comte De la Touche Tréville. The French 38 gun frigate ''Aigle'' was grounded and captured along with the Comte De la Touche.
==Background==

In early 1782, Captain Latouche-Tréville assumed command of ''Aigle'', which, along with the frigate ''Gloire'', ferried funds and equipment for the fleet of Admiral Vaudreil. On 5 September 1782 ''Aigle'' and ''Gloire'' encountered the recently acquired British ship ''Hector'', a former French ship of the line which had been severely damaged and then captured at the Battle of the Saintes. ''Hector'' managed to escape but she was damaged further and later sank in the 1782 Central Atlantic hurricane. ''Aigle'' and ''Gloire'' went on to capture the brig off the Delaware River on 10 September 1782. On 13 September a small British squadron consisting of , , and the prize ''Sophie'', led by Captain George Elphinstone in , and HMS ''Lion'' sighted the three vessels anchored in the Delaware River off Cape Henlopen Light. The British set out in chase; Captain George Elphinstone, in the 50-gun ship ''Warwick'' dispatched the lighter vessels 28-gun frigate ''Vestal'', the sloop ''Bonetta'' and the ''Sophie'' under command of Richard Keats as they were to traverse shallow waters.
