#OTD in 1778, Captain John Barry led 27 men in row boats to capture two British supply ships and an armed schooner in the Delaware River. The Americans also took 116 prisoners. Barry sent a captured jar of pickled oysters and a large wheel of cheese to George Washington.

It's #NationalCerealDay! Cap'n Crunch was at the center of a stolen valor scandal in 2013 when media noted his three stripes indicated he was only a commander. The Navy jokingly responded that he was being investigated by NCIS. Now forgotten is his 1970's shipmate Harry S. Hippo.
