USS Nonsuch (1813) : ウィキペディア英語版 | USS Nonsuch (1813)
USS ''Nonsuch'' was an armed schooner in the United States Navy during the War of 1812. ==Privateer== ''Nonsuch'' was built in 1812 in Baltimore, Maryland. Her owner, George Stiles and Company, requested a commission for ''Nonsuch'' as a letter of marque on 29 June 1812. The schooner soon commenced privateering along the East Coast of the United States and in the West Indies seeking British shipping. Under Captain Henry Levely, she attacked two British armed vessels, a ship and a schooner off Martinique on 28 September. ''Nonsuch'' fought these two ships for three hours in an extremely furious battle, causing great confusion and killing or wounding a considerable number of the enemy. Unfortunately damage to her own rigging prevented ''Nonsuch'' from pursuing the British ships as they fled to Martinique.
