I think you mean Pliny the elder who was in charge of the fleet at Misenum.

I found it most interesting when I first went to Rome to find that people still yet put flowers on the grave of Caesar.

he was a great roman.
"The Kaiser knows the Munsters,
by the Shamrock on their caps,
And the famous Bengal Tiger, ever ready for a scrap,
And all his big battalions, Prussian Guards and grenadiers,
Fear to face the flashing bayonets of the Munster Fusiliers."
