On 23 September 1779, his ship engaged the HMS Serapis in the North Sea off Famborough Head, England. Richard was blasted in the initial broadside the two ships exchanged, losing much of her firepower and many of her gunners. Captain Richard Pearson, commanding Serapis, called out to Jones, asking if he surrendered. Jones' reply: I have not yet begun to fight!

This memorial to John Paul Jones (July 6, 1747 - July 18, 1792), the Father of the American Navy, is on a traffic island on 17th St., near the Tidal Basin. I had walked near here many times but never noticed the memorial. I found it on an NPS map of downtown DC.
