A force of three Spanish gunboats attempted to lift the blockade of Cardenas, Cuba but were repulsed and sent back into harbor by two United States Navy warships. ==Background== During the Spanish–American War, Cardenas proved to be one of Spain's strongholds though it was considered a minor port. When war was declared and the United States Navy began their blockade of Cuba, three Spanish gunboats were trapped within the river. These vessels skirmished with two American vessels on April 27 and in the brief action one of the Spanish vessels was damaged. At the beginning of May 1898, the small 142 ton torpedo boat USS ''Winslow'', under Lieutenant John Bernadou, and gunboat USS ''Machias'' blockaded Cardenas. On May 8, USS ''Machias'' left the blockade for a patrol, leaving the ''Winslow'' as the only American vessel at Cardenas. This tempted the Spanish gunboats to try to break the blockade. USS ''Winslow'' was armed with three rapid fire 1-pounders and three 18-inch (457 mm) torpedo tubes with a crew of twently officers and men. ''Machias'' was a much larger gunboat armed with eight 4-inch guns, four 6-pounders and four 1-pounders. ''Machias'' had a crew of about 150 men and officers. She participated only in the last few minutes of fighting. Spanish forces included the ''Antonio Lopez'', the ''Alerta'' and the ''Ligeria''. All armed with one rapid fire 6-pounder each and had a crew on average of twenty men. The Spanish garrison of Cardenas manned two shore batteries, one was a stone battery occupied by a few guns and gunners, the other was filled with at least three field pieces and about 100 infantry with long range rifles but neither of these forces were capable of engaging as the battle was fought outside of their range. American forces also suspected that the Spanish had laid a sea mine field around the harbor with only one avenue for entering or exiting the port. A buoy was placed beyond the mine field which marked the extent at which the Spanish gunboats could fire. Spanish naval forces were under the command of Lieutenant Antonio Pérez Rendón. 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「First Battle of Cárdenas」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.
