@Mauzzewulf there were 2 or 3 left, the last one went in 1905, to think this is being sung when men that fought king George's troops still walked among us
Even though the last veterans who served in the war of 1812 were all but gone at this point in 1898, many were children of those veterans or served under them in the armed forces before they reached retirement age. It’s crazy just how short US history is, the last confirmed veteran of the American revolution died in 1869, the last confirmed veteran of the war of 1812 died in 1905, the last confirmed US civil war veteran died in 1955, and the last US WWI veteran died in 2011.
@@случайныйпареньиздругогорайонаlooking at all the dates he listed it seems like the last veteran of a war typically dies about 95 years after said war begins, so perhaps the last WW2 veteran will die somewhere around 2035? then again people are living longer these days
The men singing this could’ve went outside and found a civil war veteran with ease
Or better yet they were veterans
They could have also met a veteran from the War of 1812 or the Mexican American war
Or their fathers/grandfathers coulda been
@@NewCalifornaRepublic2377after 86 years I think most of the ‘1812 veterans would’ve passed on…

They go ever so quickly, too quick.
Now in about 20 years or a little more, the last confirmed WWII veteran will die. We’re not ready to let them go yet.
@@случайныйпареньиздругогорайонаthere is about 119,550 still living
it's incredible to think that there were any War of 1812 veterans left when this was recorded!

1:03 love the way they say “that star spangled”
what are the odds i’d get “The Star-Spangled Banner” stuck in my head on September 11th…
I had seen the flag with my own eyes, and I cried
Very nice voices.
That was unique
At the time, They could have met a veteran from the war of 1812,American-Indian wars,Mexican-American war,The Civil war,or the Spanish-American war
depending on when in the year this was, Spanish American might not have happened yet!
flag had less stars in 1898 but it's ok
