She grounded off Reggio Calabria in January 1808 and was burnt to prevent her being salvaged. ==Career== Commander Phillip Handfield commissioned ''Delight'' in July 1806.〔Winfield (2008), p. 307.〕 He then sailed her for the Mediterranean in November. In February 1807, ''Delight'' was part of the Rear Division, commanded by Rear-Admiral Sir Sidney Smith, at Admiral Duckworth's Dardanelles Operation, which was the Royal Navy's unsuccessful attempt to impose British demands on the Ottoman Empire as part of the Anglo-Turkish War (1807-1809). On 6 April 1807 ''Delight'' brought to Vice Admiral Lord Collingwood at Cadiz the news of the capitulation of Alexandria to British forces on 28 March. 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「HMS Delight (1806)」の詳細全文を読む スポンサード リンク
