One such Cog outfitted for war provided by the Earl of Pembroke grappled the French flagship during the Battle of Sandwich (24th August 1217). The resultant capture of the Capetian French commander's Admiral Eustace the Monk and Robert I, the younger son of the emperor Peter II of Courtenay, defeated the French armada and ended Prince Louis attempt to conquer England.
