The Attack on German Flatts (September 17, 1778) was a raid on the frontier settlement of German Flatts, New York (which then also encompassed what is now Herkimer) during the American Revolutionary War. The attack was made by a mixed force of Loyalists and Iroquois under the overall command of Mohawk leader Joseph Brant, and resulted in the destruction of houses, barns, and crops, and the taking of livestock for the raiders' use. The settlers, warned by the heroic run of Adam Helmer, took refuge in local forts but were too militarily weak to stop the raiders.

  • ジャーマンフラッツへの攻撃(ジャーマンフラッツへのこうげき、英語: Attack on German Flatts)は、アメリカ独立戦争中の1778年9月17日、イギリス軍を支持するロイヤリストとイロコイ連邦インディアンの混成部隊が前線開拓地(現在のニューヨーク州も含む)を攻撃した戦闘である。攻撃はロイヤリストとイロコイ連邦の混成軍によって行われ、全体の指揮はモホーク族指導者ジョセフ・ブラントが執った。彼ら家屋や納屋を破壊し、作物を傷め、家畜は自分たちで使うために連れ帰った。開拓者たちはが勇敢にも急報したことで、地元の砦に逃げ込むことができたが、軍事的に脆弱だったため襲撃を止めることはできなかった。 このブラントの攻撃は、彼自身あるいはロイヤリストやの指導者が指揮し、ニューヨーク西部やペンシルベニア北部フロンティアに対して行った一連の攻撃の1つだった。これに対してアメリカ側の指導層は、イロコイ族領内にあるブラントの前進基地を破壊する。 (ja)
