Fort McHenry - Unfurling the Stars and Stripes
Bicentennial Celebration - What are you shooting this week?
The two year commemoration of the events surrounding the War of 1812, the Battle of Baltimore - Defense of Fort McHenry and the Star-spangled Banner culminate this week with an amazing array of reenactments, displays, living history, parades and the Blue Angels. As I complete this entry, thousands of primary and middle school students from across the state formed a huge living flag at Fort McHenry. The Star-Spangled Spectacular is in full swing.
Here's a brief summary:

Baltimore's Kick-off to the commemoration of the War of 1812. The defense of Fort McHenry took place in 1814. Take from Baltimore's Word Trade Center.
Visitors to Fort McHenry have the opportunity to participate in unfurling a large 15 Star and 15 Stripe replica flag. It is an informative and moving experience. We stood together with fellow Marylanders and with visitors from across the country in the increasing rain and learned of the Battle of Baltimore. As the flag grew wet and heavy, I thought of what it must have been like to man this fort under the 25 hour bombardment of missiles, mortars and bombs through the night-long heavy rain. Ranger Ray Snyder did an excellent job of involving the group and making history come alive. Visit Fort McHenry if you can. The visitor's center movie is a must. Then tour the fort. Stand on the ramparts. Turn east toward the Chesapeake Bay. Imagine looking into the teeth of the amassed armament being thrown up by the British Fleet. It's well worth the trip.
See you out shooting!
