The Capture of Sint Eustatius took place in February 1781 during the Fourth Anglo-Dutch War when British army and naval forces under Lieutenant-General Sir John Vaughan and Admiral George Rodney seized the Dutch-owned Caribbean island of Sint Eustatius. The capture was controversial in Britain, as it was alleged that Vaughan and Rodney had used the opportunity to enrich themselves and had neglected more important military duties. The island was subsequently taken by Dutch-allied French forces in late 1781, ending the British occupation.

  • Захват Синт-Эстатиус (о. Св. Евстафия, нидерл. Sint Eustatius) — десантная операция в феврале 1781 года, в ходе Четвёртой англо-голландской войны. Британцы силами армии и флота под командованием генерала Джона Вогана и адмирала Джорджа Родни захватили принадлежащий голландцам карибский остров Синт-Эстатиус. Захват был спорным в Великобритании, так как были заявления, что Воган и Родни использовали его для собственного обогащения. (ru)
