Excerpt from The Life of John Jervis, Admiral Lord St. Vincent The very name of St. Vincent seems to be associated with the word "discipline." History is full of instances where, in strenuous and difficult times, when every one is looking for the one man capable of dealing with the situation to appear, he suddenly steps on to the stage. In the latter part of the eighteenth century a man of a stern and unbending nature was wanted in the English Navy; a man who could mould the characters of brave but very rough men, many of whom had been forced into a sea-life against their will, and transform them into the fine fighting material and splendid seamen they eventually became. Put into the Navy by Anson, who was a Staffordshire man like himself, John Jervis started with nothing to help him beyond Anson's nomination, and a letter afterwards, asking Saunders to look after him; and it was by sheer hard work and ability that he rose to the position he ultimately held.
