USS Guerriere (1814)

USS ''Guerriere'' was the first frigate built in the United States since 1801. The name came from a fast 38-gun British frigate captured and destroyed in a half-hour battle by 19 August 1812. This victory was one of the United States' first in the War of 1812.
She was built at the Philadelphia Navy Yard under the supervision of Joseph and Francis Grice. She was launched on 20 June 1814 under the command of Commodore John Rodgers and attached to the Delaware Flotilla. She served in the United States Navy during the Second Barbary War.
==Second Barbary War operations==
After fitting out, she was transferred to the command of Captain Stephen Decatur and became the flagship of the squadron assembled at New York. She sailed from New York on 20 May 1815 to lead the squadron in terminating piratical acts against American merchant commerce by Algiers and other Barbary States.〔Waldo, 1821 p.248〕
On 17 June 1815, off the Algerian coast, the frigate drove the 44-gun frigate ''Meshuda'', the flagship of the Algerian Fleet, under the guns of Decatur's flagship, ''Guerriere''. With two broadsides, the American frigate drove below all who were not killed or disabled on ''Meshuda''s decks, where after, ''Meshuda'' surrendered. Among her fatalities was Rais Hamidu, Algiers' ranking naval officer. Two days later, ''Guerriere'' led the squadron in driving the 22-gun Algerian brig ''Estedio'' ashore.〔
''Guerriere'' arrived at Algiers on 28 June 1815, ready to act with her squadron for the capture of every Algerian ship that entered port unless the Dey ratified the terms of a peace treaty sent him by Decatur. The treaty was negotiated on board ''Guerriere'' on 30 June 1815, ending the payment of tribute to Algiers and exacting full payment for injuries to American commerce.
''Guerriere'' next led the squadron in a show of force that resulted in a peace settlement with Tunis on 13 July 1815 and with Tripoli on 9 August 1815.
Having enforced the peace in less than six weeks from time of sailing from the United States, she combined with the entire Mediterranean Squadron naval force assembled at Gibraltar under Commodore William Bainbridge. The 18 warships, including ship-of-the-line , five frigates, two sloops-of-war, seven brigs, and three schooners, was the largest fleet ever collected under the American flag in the Mediterranean Sea to that time. It marked the beginning of a permanent naval fleet in the Mediterranean, which has evolved into the powerful 6th Fleet of today. Then, as today, the fleet was a factor in keeping the peace and strengthening the international diplomacy of the nation.
