The quote is

‘I Have Not Yet Begun To Fight’

September 23, 1779 — John Paul Jones, the war hero known as the father of the US Navy, achieved a dramatic victory against the British on this day.

John Paul Jones was born in Scotland and then went on to fight for the Russians against the Turks at the urging of Thomas Jefferson.
