History Details For - Sir Samuel Hood

12/4/1724
He entered the navy at age 17, and was fighting against the French in the New World as early as 1753. By the time he was into his fifties, he’d distinguished himself as a commander, as well as the wielder of an extremely violent temper. At the time when most of his peers were retiring from active service, he was promoted to Rear Admiral and sent to the West Indies in 1781 as second in command to Admiral Rodney.
