It all happened in 1814 right here in Baltimore, in a ship on our Chesapeake Bay right off of Fort McHenry, which is only about 3 miles from my office. Our flag still flies there every day and every night, well lighted, as it has always been with the exception of the dark days during WWII.
It's a great story and a great anthem. Not the easiest to sing, nor remember, but it is ours and I'm damn proud of it.
