USS Essex vs HMS Alert
A naval engagement between USS Essex and HMS Alert took place on 13 August 1812, in which the light frigate, USS Essex, 32 encountered and captured the British sloop Alert, 20. With "so trifling a skirmish" Porter later said, Alert became the first American capture of the war.
