USS CONSTITUTION ”OLD IRONSIDES’’

USS CONSTITUTION The 44-gun USS CONSTITUTION was built in Boston and launched on October 21 in 1797 It was developed in response to the threat of Barbary pirates, which threatened American merchant shipping off northern coast of Africa.

The British imposed embargoes and trade restrictions on American’s merchant fleet and impressed more than 5,000 American sailors and forced them to serve aboard her ships. President James Madison declared war on England on June 18 in 1812.

USS CONSTITUTION During the War of 1812 she defeated four English warships, earning each of her three captains a congressional gold medal. The victories of Constitution had no direct effect on the course of the war. Constitution uplifted American morale and ended forever the myth that the Royal Navy was invincible.

Main Battles The Great Chase (July 16-19, 1812) USS CONSTITUTION vs. HMS GUERRIERE (August 19, 1812) (Her (His) Majesty’s Ship) USS CONSTITUTION vs. HMS JAVA ( December 29, 1812) USS CONSTITUTION vs. HMS CYANE and HMS LEVANT ( February 20, 1812)

USS CONSTITUTION vs. HMS GUERRIERE USS CONSTITUTION was outfitted with 55 guns when she encountered the 49-gun frigate HMS GUERRIERE off the coast of Nova Scotia at about 2 p.m. USS CONSTITUTION – Capt. Isaac Hull HMS GUERRIERE – Capt. James Dacres

USS CONSTITUTION vs. HMS GUERRIERE USS CONSTITUTION’S commanding officer chose to hold fire until just after 6 p.m. In the course of 35-minute battle an astonished sailor observed British 18-pound iron cannonballs(пушечные ядра), bouncing harmlessly off USS CONSTITUTION’S 25-inch oak hull, and cried out “Huzza! Her sides are made of iron!’’

USS CONSTITUTION vs. HMS GUERRIERE USS CONSTITUTION’S 24- pound shots were devastating, bringing down the English warship’s masts(мачты), and entangling the two ships when they collided. By 7 p.m., a wounded Dacres ordered a gun fired to leeward(подветренная сторона), signaling HMS GUERRIERE’s surrender to the American frigate.

USS CONSTITUTION Last time USS CONSTITUTION was repaired in In 1997 on the occasion of celebration of it’s bicentennial(200 years) anniversary she sailed into the sea. Before that she didn’t sailed for 116 years. Nowadays you can find USS CONSTITUTION in the harbor of Boston (Massachusetts).

THE CONSTITUTION EXPERIENCE Every Tuesday morning during USS CONSTITUTIONS’s Summer Hours, the crew of “Old Ironsides’’ will be offering the CONSTITUTION EXPERIENCE. Visitors are invited to observe the Morning Colors ceremony and then embark ship for a special extended tour before escorted to the USS CONSTITUTION Museum.
