USS Champion (1777) : ウィキペディア英語版 | USS Champion (1777)
The Continental Navy xebec, ''Champion'', commanded by Captain James Josiah, served in the Delaware River in a force composed of ships of the Continental and Pennsylvania State Navy during the American Revolution. It was this force that contested British efforts to establish sea communications with their forces in Philadelphia in the fall of 1777. After several months of fighting against heavy odds, the American ships attempted to run past Philadelphia. The Pennsylvania State galleys succeeded but the Continental fleet, including ''Champion'', was burned by its own officers on 21 November 1777, when tide and winds turned against them. ==References==
