Thomas Macnamara Russell
Vice-Admiral Thomas Macnamara Russell (died 22 July 1824) was a Royal Navy officer who served in the American War of Independence and French Revolutionary and Napoleonic Wars. Russell is best remembered for his command of a squadron in the North Sea when he took possession of Heligoland after Denmark came into the war on the side of the French in 1809. His career was also notable due to the single-ship action fought between the 20-gun HMS ''Hussar'' and the 32-gun French frigate ''Sybille'' in which he captured the French frigate despite her superior number of men and guns. There is controversy surrounding the event in that the capture happened towards the end of the American Revolution and the British officers claimed that the French were flying false colours and a distress flag during the action. Whilst it was common for ships of opposing nations to lure, or escape from, one another with false colours it was considered dishonourable to continue flying false flags once the ...
