HMS Delft (1797), formerly the Dutch ship Hercules captured in 1797 during the Battle of Camperdown. She was sunk as a breakwater in 1822. Because Delft served in the navy's Egyptian campaign between 8 March 1801 and 2 September, her officers and crew qualified for the clasp "Egypt" to the Naval General Service Medal, which the Admiralty issued in 1847 to all surviving claimants.[1]
