The Attack on Tortuga (1744)

On Wednesday, June 8, 1744 (2011), an attack by the privateers of England took place on Tortuga, in which the Faithful Bride was burned to the ground.

Prologue
King George II and Admiral Henry of the English Privateers stood in the munitions storage room, near the top of Fort Charles. They were discussing events that had taken place the night before, when a courier arrived, telling them of King Philip V's arrival. He told Henry to circle around the outer battlements and get his soldiers on standby.

Henry amassed his soldiers at the docks, while Henry and two other soldiers waited at the Royal Medical Foundation camp on the grounds of Fort Charles.
