* Remembrance John Barry DayRemembrance John Barry Day
September 13, 1803 The Revolutionary War hero John Barry, first American to hold the rank of commodore, died this day at Philadelphia, PA. John Barry was born in Tacumshane, County Wexford on March 25, 1745. He is referred to as the “Father of the American Navy.”
He emigrated to New Jersey and became an officer in the Continental Navy. His first command was the Lexington a ship with 14 guns. On this ship, he captured the tender to HMS Liverpool and several privateers. He was offered 100,000 pounds and command of any frigate in the Royal Navy, if he would switch sides. Captain Barry replied that he would not do so even if offered the entire British treasury and command of the entire Royal Navy. While commander of the Alliance, Barry was seriously wounded on May 29,1781. He was still in command of the Alliance at the last naval battle of the war off Cape Carnaveral on March 10, 1783 where he was victorious.
On February 1797, Barry was issued Commission Number 1 in the new United States Navy by President George Washington. It was retroactive to June 4,1794. His rank of Commodore made him, not only the first commissioned officer of the US Navy, but also its first flag officer. Commodore Barry left active service on March 6, 1801. He passed away on September 13, 1803.
