Service members and Fort McHenry staff and volunteers
Summary
Service members and Fort McHenry staff and volunteers participate in a flag raising ceremony rehearsal as part of the Star-Spangled Spectacular. The event celebrates the bicentennial of the Battle of Baltimore, which provided the backdrop for Francis Scott Key's famous poem, "Defence of Fort McHenry," which later became America's national anthem. More than 30 ships from the U.S. and foreign nations, and the U.S. Navy's Blue Angels aircraft will be on display and open to the public.(U.S. Navy photo by Mass Communication Specialist 3rd Class Laura Hoover/Released)
