    Just so recently I have been aroused to relook at American History for the second time, I never payed much attention in history class. Deep inside I knew what happened yet I couldn't touch it on my tongue. After watching and relearning the history I took for granted, I was sent into tears. The United States of America will always be a country and will forever wave the Stars and Stripes! GOD BLESS AMERCA!

    In the early 1950's there was a Marine Corps Reserve training center next to the Fort. On a few occasions we performed some training on the grounds of the Fort after closing hours. Sometime in the later 1950's a new armory was built for us in Hamilton. I will never forget the Marine vets from World War 2 and Korea who trained us.

    Fort McHenry is worth the effort to visit. The presentation of the inspiration for the Star Spangled Banner is second to none and brought uncontrollable tears to my eyes. EVERY American school child should have to learn their history in depth….not this woke, clownish, watered down version that the Teacher’s Unions are forcing down their gullets. America’s history, even with its flaws, is still one in which every Liberty loving soul should be honored to carry In their heart and mind. America the Beautiful. America, the home of the brave. Nuff said!

    Fun fact. If you purchase a flag in the gift shop, they will let you hoist it up the famous mast and fly it. At least, about 10 yrs ago they did. Not sure if they still do.

    The start of your introduction it’s almost as if you were afraid to say President Donald Trump & First Lady Melania Trump visited…. That occurred about 90 days before you did the video in May: Americans observe a subdued Memorial Day, President Trump visited Fort McHenry in Baltimore to remember those soldiers who have fallen in service of the country.
    "I stand before you at this noble fortress of American liberty to pay tribute to the immortal souls who fought and died to keep us free," Trump told the crowd, which included several members of his Cabinet. "We pledge in their cherished memories that this majestic flag will proudly fly forever."
