John Paul Jones attacked the British warship HMS Serapis with his ship, the Bonhomme Richard, during a naval battle on September 23, 1779. The encounter took place off the coast of Flamborough Head in England. Despite facing significant challenges, including the Bonhomme Richard being heavily damaged, Jones famously declared, "I have not yet begun to fight!" during the battle. His victory contributed to his reputation as a naval hero in the American Revolution.
