Star Spangled Banner 200th Anniversary

The raising of the replica flag that flew over Fort McHenry that inspired Francis Scott Key to write the Star-Spangled Banner. The band is playing Yankee Doodle Dandy, just as the fort's band would have done in 1814 when Key saw the flag after the British bombardment. From the official website of Star-Spangled 200: A procession of modern and living history military units, represented by the 3rd U.S. Infantry Regiment (The Old Guard) and the Fort McHenry Guard, kicks off this real-time anniversary program. The ceremony will feature artillery salutes, patriotic music and a reading of the four stanzas of “The Star-Spangled Banner” by individuals with unique ties to the American flag. At 9:00 AM, the precise moment that the historic flag was raised, inspiring Francis Scott Key to write “The Defence of Fort McHenry,” the 15-star/15-stripe, full-size replica Star-Spangled Banner flag will be raised over Fort McHenry.
