I May Sink, But I'll Be Damned

I May Sink, But I'll Be Damned If I Strike!

An Honorable Peace Is And Always Was My First Wish! I Can Take No Delight In The Effusion Of Human Blood; But, If This War Should Continue, I Wish To Have The Most Active Part In It.

Nothing Exciting Ever Happens To Me.

Whoever Can Surprise Well Must Conquer.

...without A Respectable Navy, Alas America!
