The tale behind "The Star-Spangled Banner" is as touching as the anthem itself. During the War of 1812, while an advocate, Key was serving in the Georgetown Light Field Artillery. Dr. William Beane, a prisoner on the British naval ship Tonnant, was released in 1814, owing to his negotiation skills as a lawyer. Key traveled to Baltimore early in September, beginning negotiations with Colonel John Skinner in the company of Colonel John Skinner.
Baltimore was attacked by the British navy even before Key and Skinner secured Beane's release. Although Beane was released, the British navy had begun attacking Baltimore. The three children arrived on board to return to Georgetown.
The Patapsco River, which runs through Fort McHenry, is located on a peninsula of the Patapsco River. Baltimore is just over the Northwest Branch from the Northwest Branch. The population of Baltimore, which was barely the metropolis it is today, was just 50,000 people in 1814, not the metropolis it is today. Although the country was still young, many families of soldiers remained nearby, helping their troops.
