The Braddock expedition, also called Braddock's campaign or (more commonly) Braddock's Defeat, a failed British military expedition, attempted to capture the French Fort Duquesne (established in 1754, located in what is now downtown Pittsburgh) in the summer of 1755, during the French and Indian War of 1754 to 1763. The British troops suffered defeat at the Battle of the Monongahela on July 9, 1755, and the survivors retreated. The expedition takes its name from General Edward Braddock (1695–1755), who led the British forces and died in the effort. Braddock's defeat was a major setback for the British in the early stages of the war with France; John Mack Faragher characterises it as one of the most disastrous defeats for the British in the 18th century.

  • La spedizione Braddock, chiamata anche campagna di Braddock o più comunemente sconfitta di Braddock, fu una fallimentare spedizione britannica con la quale si cercò di conquistare la fortezza francese di Fort Duquesne (oggi nella periferia di Pittsburgh) nell'estate del 1755 durante la guerra franco-indiana. Fu sconfitta nella battaglia del Monongahela del 9 luglio ed i sopravvissuti si ritirarono.

Экспедиция была частью Франко—индейской войны и была запланирована в ответ на нападение французской армии на форт Несессити в июле 1754 года. Отряд Эдварда Брэддока был собран в Александрии, проследовал через в форт Камберленд, откуда начал наступление через лес к форту Дюкен, но на подходе к нему был атакован французами и их индейскими союзниками на берегу реки Мононгахила. В сражении при Мононгахиле 9 июля 1755 года британская армия понесла тяжёлые потери, а генерал Брэддок получил смертельное ранение. Поражение Брэддока стало серьёзным ударом для англич (ru)
