The Chesapeake Bay Flotilla was a motley collection of barges and gunboats that the United States assembled under the command of Joshua Barney, an 1812 privateer captain, to stall British attacks in the Chesapeake Bay which came to be known as the "Chesapeake Campaign" during the War of 1812. The Flotilla engaged the Royal Navy in several inconclusive battles before Barney was forced to scuttle the vessels themselves on August 22, 1814. The men of the Flotilla then served onshore in the defense of Washington, DC and Baltimore. It was disbanded on February 15, 1815, after the end of the war.

  • Флотилія була строкатим зібранням озброєних барж і канонерських човнів, які Сполучені Штати зібрали під командуванням Джошуа Барні для протидії британських атакам у районі Чесапікської затоки під час Війни 1812 року . Флотилія зіткнулася з Королівським флотом у кількох невирішальних боях, перш ніж Барні був змушений самостійно знищити її судна 22 серпня 1814 року. Особовий склад флотилії після того служив на березі і брав участь у обороні Вашингтона, округ Колумбія і Балтимора. Флотилія була розформована 15 лютого 1815 року, після закінчення війни. (uk)
