The USS Chesapeake was a US Navy frigate involved in an 1806 boarding incident by the British Navy, one of several attacks at sea that precipitated the War of 1812. Ironically, Chesapeake was captured during the war and became HMS Chesapeake. Its captain was killed, having famously ordered his crew "Don't give up the ship."
