This is very true... As a person who comes from a long line of military blood lines... Patriotism for the free world - The United States of America, a country that is supposed to instill the belief that everyone should be free and not have government tell them what to do, how they should live and where they should be... It's a very powerful thing. We must protect and defend that. We must not let anyone strip away any freedoms that we have fought for and ancestors died for. It would be a disgraceful thing to turn away from the facts and let our country be turned into something that it was fighting against at its conception.

According to the Flag Code, the American flag should not touch anything beneath it, including the ground. This rule is in place to emphasize the importance of handling the flag with care and to protect it from getting soiled or damaged. It is a symbol of our nation and should be treated with the utmost respect. The flag didn't get raised until after the bombardment was over. It was a large flag and at that moment, it was a symbol of victory. Even after 25 hours of shelling, the fort stood.
@goatitisful4 ай бұрын
@@curtisw502That's been true for a few thousand years. But the reason America doesn't let out flag touch the ground to this day is because of this story. What you said is 100% true, but that was about battle, and medieval politics. Many modern countries literally lower their flag to the ground before folding it. Many countries have no problem with their flag touching the ground.

The British were at full scale war with Napoleon's France. Britain didn't want the US trading with France and also they took sailors from American ships and impressed them into the Royal Navy claiming the sailors were from Britain and had gone to the US to avoid service. America had no navy to match the Royal Navy and there was a feeling of humiliation in the US. A group of representatives in Congress decided that if they couldn't beat the British at sea they could beat them on land and so they pushed for an invasion of Canada which is how the war started.
@erichammond93085 ай бұрын
Britain had no intention or desire to reclaim the US as colonies. The US started the War of 1812 and invaded Canada. Britain just wanted to end an annoying backwater skirmish because they were dealing with a war against a much more powerful Napoleonic France. The orders to Vice Admiral Sir Alexander Cochran stated "attack cities and towns along the coast to force a return to negotiations and a return to status quo antebellum". Status quo antebellum means as it was before the war and the US had been recognized by England as a sovereign country for 29 years before the war. I especially love the part where the narrator calls the war protracted (long) and vicious - when it only lasted 2 years and resulted in fewer total casualties than the British alone suffered in a single day at Waterloo in 1815. This whole video is complete garbage.

My parents families came to America in the 1600’s and many fought in the Revolutionary War that created our country and in every war that ever followed. The American flag does NOT represent our government, but it represents the PEOPLE who lived and died to preserve our freedom. That is why it is so disrespectful to allow the flag to ever touch the ground and is the ultimate insult to burn or deface the flag. Americans are taught the story of our flag as children and why you see homes and businesses all over America flying the flag, so we never forget our freedoms were bought at a great price. Hands on the heart is us saying we remember that freedom isn’t free. ❤️🇺🇸

The only Fort McHenry statue I have seen is the one of Orpheus (although I’m sure there are other statues elsewhere). Since the story of dead men holding up the flag is a fabrication I’m guessing that the statue you are talking about may be figurative rather than literal? Four people did die that night. Three men and one woman. 24 wounded. I assume the statue may be of them?

Im,an American who has had a deep love of our early history all my life. This incident took place during the war of 1812. In 1776 Ameica declared its independence from England. Once America gained its independence after the war in 1782, the British Empire tried to conquer its former colonies. In 1812 they sent a huge fleet and invaded. They waged war, burned and pillaged as they went..... including the president's residence ( which after the war got rebuilt and painted white to cover up the scorch marks..... and that's why it's called the White House today) The bombardment of Fort Henry is just on of the AMAZING stories that come from our history.

Although the Star Spangled Banner is uniquely an American anthem, it is all of humanity's anthem. America has taken in more immigrants than any country at any time in history. America has sacrificed more of its people for the benefit of others, than any country throughout history. America has spent more money, provided more food, medicine, technology, freed more enslaved people, and raised more people out of poverty than any nation in all of human history. America has fought more wars for the benefit of other nations than any country throughout history. The Star Spangled Banner is not just an American anthem, it's all freedom loving people's anthem. That said, you should always enter legally and not just run across the border, like is currently going on.

They beat Napoleon and didn't care anymore about stopping US trade with France and taking British sailors from American ships which is what caused the US to invade Canada starting the War of 1812.

This was during the War of 1812. The name of the fort is Fort McHenry not Henry and the actual flag from Fort McHenry is on display at the Smithsonian museum in Washington DC.

Everyone should notice that the last lyric of the Anthem is a question, not a statement.

This story is about 50% correct. We all learned a national anthem. And the meaning behind it in middle school. This was not the revolutionary war. It was the war of 1812. William s

Thanks for your reaction. Many people and Countries don’t understand what our flag means to us. We display them on our homes and all across America. Eventually, Our 13 colonies defeated the British and we now celebrate our Independence Day every July 4th.
