  1. The first time I came across Cochrane my thoughts was he would be a fantastic special forces commander. His raids on Spanish fortifications in the Mediterranean was stuff of legends. It got to the point where on sighting his ship he was followed along the coast by a formation of cavalry waiting to pounce the minute his men stepped ashore. What the cavalry did not know was that his raiding party had already been dropped in the ships boats leaving them behind to mount the raid once he had drawn off the Spanish.
