Battle of Tres Forcas The Battle of Tres Forcas was a battle on 7 August 1856 between boat crews from the Prussian Navy corvette SMS " Danzig " ( then on a foreign cruise , commanded by Prince Adalbert of Prussia ) and the Riffians , a Moroccan tribe of Berbers . It occurred at Cape Tres Forcas and was one of the first examples of Prussian or German gunboat diplomacy . The Treaty of Paris of 1856 had decided that a Prussian warship should be deployed to the River Danube ' s outlet into the Black Sea and , on its way there , Prince Adalbert decided to explore the Rif coast of Morocco . There , four years earlier , on 7 December 1852 , the Prussian warship " Flora " had been shot at by pirates , with one sailor killed and its captain injured . On 7 August 1856 Prince Adalbert manned two boats and deployed them along the coast . After the boats came under fire from the Riffians , the " Danzig " moved to only 600 metres from the shore to give the boat crews supporting fire . Adalbert then ordered a landing operation by 14 officers and 53 non commissioned officers , sailors and marines , led by Adalbert in person . Around noon , he led a surprise attack on a steep rock face nearly 40 metres high under heavy enemy fire . This attack was successful and the Riffians were forced back to a plateau . However , they were also receiving continuous reinforcements and so Adalbert finally decided to withdraw , in case he and his troops were cut off from the shore . Prussian casualties were seven dead and 22 wounded , including Adalbert , shot in the thigh . A subscription from the whole Prussian Navy raised a monument to the dead of the battle in Gibraltar in the form of an eagle , set up in 1863 .
