HMS Wager Shipwreck | Episode 2 | Mission Control

*Episode 2 "Mission Control"*In 1740, Commodore George Anson and his squadron of eight British ships had embarked on a secret mission, to strike at Spain's Empire in the Pacific in the War of Jenkins' Ear. Disaster struck as the Naval force rounded Cape Horn and sailed through the world's most perilous seas, while being chased by a Spanish fleet. What began as a mission for honor, glory and the British Empire, became a harrowing tale of survival that ultimately descended into madness, mayhem, mutiny, and murder. *Support the Channel*Patreon: https://www.patreon.com/c/u83314446Paypal https://defraggedhistory.com/support/Buy me a Coffee https://buymeacoffee.com/defraggedhcFree Newsletter Subscription: Substack https://substack.com/@defraggedhistory 🎥Full Playlist: https://www.youtube.com/playlist?list=PL5kdplBvGykXSqQaBrMnrv_HnvMeLTL7xEpisode 1 - The Most Mad Seas:  ⁠https://youtu.be/i3bRsdIkpxM⁠Episode 2 - Mission Control: ⁠https://youtu.be/SjEi5dPWJIk⁠Episode 3 - Run to the Devil: ⁠https://youtu.be/bZLVvXv5J74⁠Episode 4 - Perish or Pull: ⁠https://youtu.be/72Hine-UuWs⁠Episode 5 - Unfortunate Adventures: ⁠https://youtu.be/DKuw7E_lN8M⁠Episode 6 - The Ghost of Wager Island: TBA *SOURCES AND INFO*🌐 Website: https://defraggedhistory.com/📖 Sources: https://defraggedhistory.com/bibliography-the-wager/🎶 Music: https://defraggedhistory.com/hms-wager-the-music/All music is licensed through Epidemic Sound. *SOCIALS*X/Twitter: https://x.com/DefraggedHInstagram: https://www.instagram.com/defraggedhistory/ Facebook: https://www.facebook.com/defraggedhistory/Threads: https://www.threads.net/@defraggedhistoryBluesky: https://bsky.app/profile/defraggedhistory.bsky.social
