there were, however, some bright spots for the continental navy. rates on caribbean munitions depot brought back much needed gun power. navy ships did an excellent job of faring correspondents and diplomats back and forth across the atlantic and continental navy ships captured roughly 200 prices, much of which room working ships. the same kind of prices that privateer is brought back to port. and even in the battle between the navy and john paul chances captain. and the hms psoriasis. welded buoyed hopes and pride in the american colonies. it appeared -- it ended up sinking. more than 100 men were killed. in the convoy that jayne jones had been in search of got away during the battle. nevertheless, despite the rights -- bright spots of the continental maybe. in july of 1780. john adams reflecting on the fortunes of the navy wrote. in looking over the long list of vessels belonging to the united states taken and destroyed and recollected the whole history of the rise in progress of our navy. it is very difficult to avoid tears. the american revoluti

then the continental navy, and that is absolutely true.many men chose to join privateers rather than the navy in, the hopes of earning more money. but that doesn't mean that had there been no the continental navy would have been transformed into a fearsome fighting machine. there are roughly 60 continental navy vessels in the atlantic. throughout the revolution building and assembling a navy from scratch would have been a gargantuan for a well-functioning, wealthy government. for the relatively poorly staffed and financially continental congress, it was almost insurmountable challenge. the continental navies record in battle is not an enviable one. 28 vessels were captured or destroyed and many others were lost at sea. sole returned to france or burned to keep them from falling into enemy hands. at war's end, just a few navy ships were left. there were, however, some bright spots for the continental navy. raids on caribbean munitions depots brought back much needed gunpowder. navy ships did an excellent job of ferrying correspondents and,

let us have a true continental congress with canadian representatives. let us have a continental army which includes canadians as well as we invite others to join us in what was first of course a rebellion a defense of the rights of americans or these continental provisionals in the early part, and then after july of '76 ultimately a revolution for the independence of the country itself, so they were joining us and the first regiment or the first canadian was by james livingston who had already been in action up there. so he got the first canadian and moses hazen got the second canadian. so to give you a little bit of background on moses hazen. he had actually been in rogers rangers during the seven years' war. and then he had actually gotten a commission with the 44th regiment of foot, which ultimately led him to retire in the montreal region and right around saint john in canada itself. so i like to point this out. is that here was an american who did get a british commission as opposed to washington who did not and he's an actually was really really t

so much bigger than the common continental infantry regiment. so it was authorized 1,000, and by the spring of '77, it was close to 900 men that had enlisted in this regiment. did they all stay? absolutely not. some guys joined up, got their bounty money, and headed off. so we've got that. they don't all stay. but it was tremendously successful recruiting under congress's own. unfortunately, this regiment didn't always get along well with others. it got a rather bad reputation in what it was doing. and congress came back and said, you're not supposed to be calling it congress's own. so what's it supposed to be called? back to second canadian? no. that's not doing recruiting. they continued to go traditional by hasan's name. but i also noted in some of their rosters that the captains in this regiment put little cors under their rosters. they're still a part of congress's own regiment in there. so they were incredibly successful under that name of congress's own. and continued to do that through the rest of the war even after 1781 when james livin
