- As far as I know, the details of this raid are principally known from Parsons' correspondence (I have not seen any evidence of a British account of the raid, despite looking for one). Parsons does not identify any of the ships involved by name, and I've not seen published any detailed orders (e.g. from Parsons' orderly book) that might identify the American escorts more specifically.
