Sheerness is a town on the Isle of Sheppey, in Kent. It is the largest town on the island, with a population of approximately 20,000 inhabitants. Sheerness was focus of a Dutch naval attack in June 1667 when 72 hostile ships compelled the 'sandspit fort' to surrender during the "Raid on the Medway", the Dutch occupied the town for a short while. Impressed by the civil behavior of the Dutch marines - they paid for their dinner - the town reinvited the Dutch Marine Corps for the third centennial of the raid.
