dbo:abstract

Sir Peircy Brett (1709 – 14. října 1781) byl britský admirál. V královském námořnictvu sloužil od roku 1725, později se prosadil jako účastník různých válečných konfliktů v Evropě a v koloniích. V roce 1753 byl povýšen do šlechtického stavu a byl mimo jiné dlouholetým členem Dolní sněmovny. V administraci námořnictva nakonec zastával funkci prvního námořního lorda (1766–1770) a v roce 1778 získal hodnost admirála. (cs)
Admiral Sir Peircy Brett (1709 – 14 October 1781) was a Royal Navy officer. As a junior officer he served on George Anson's voyage around the world and commanded the landing party which sacked and burned the town of Paita in November 1741. During the Jacobite rising Brett saw action on 9 July 1745, when as captain of the fourth-rate HMS Lion he exchanged fire with the French ships Elizabeth and the Du Teillay: the Du Teillay at the time was carrying Charles Edward Stuart to Scotland with supplies and funds to support his cause. Brett also commanded the third-rate HMS Yarmouth at the First Battle of Cape Finisterre in May 1747 during the War of the Austrian Succession. He commanded HMS Cambridge on the North America and West Indies Station during the Seven Years' War and later became Senior Naval Lord. He was also a Member of Parliament, representing the constituency of Queenborough from 1754 until 1774. (en)
