Historical Context Sidebar
During the 17th century, sailors were often pressed into combat whether or not they were trained soldiers. Many pirate crews, privateers, and naval forces relied on the experience and grit of these maritime men to crew ships and fight in brutal engagements. Life at sea was hard, and sailors were accustomed to danger, making them formidable fighters in close-quarters combat on both water and land.
