The HMS Leopard attacked the US frigate Chesapeake in 1807 because the British were searching for deserters from the Royal Navy who they believed were on board the Chesapeake.

This incident contributed to the growing tensions between the United States and Britain and eventually led to the War of 1812.

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."
