Both the U.S. national anthem and the flag that inspired the song are major legacies of the War of 1812 when the United States and its allies fought against the United Kingdom to preserve the young country. In September of 1814, British forces attacked Fort McHenry in Baltimore and failed. Watching the battle was Francis Scott Key who was so inspired by the defense of the city and a gigantic forty foot American flag draped over the garrison that he penned the lyrics to the nation's national anthem.
FOX’s Tonya J. Powers speaks with Jennifer Jones, Curator and Project Director at the Smithsonian Museum's Division of Military and Society, who takes us through the history of these symbols of the United States and how they are cared for.
