Peter Bover Captain Peter Turner Bover (5 October 1772 – late 1802) was an officer of the Royal Navy during the French Revolutionary Wars, who fired the first shot at the Spithead mutiny of 1797. ==Early career== He entered the Royal Navy, following in the footsteps of his father (Captain John Bover) and two of his elder brothers, as a volunteer aboard HMS ''Perseus''. He transferred to HMS ''Queen'' the same year, and then to HMS ''Crown'', then the flagship of Commodore Cornwallis. Cornwallis took a great interest in Bover's career, as did Admiral Affleck, who wrote that "Bover... is a name which will always be dear to the service". He was appointed a lieutenant on 3 January 1794, serving in HMS ''Minerva'', HMS ''Excellent'' and HMS ''Caesar'', before being appointed the First Lieutenant of HMS ''London'', a 98‐gun first‐rate, in 1797; it served as the flagship of Admiral Sir John Colpoys.
