During the War of 1812, Francis Scott Key watched the attack on Fort McHenry that occurred during the night of September 13-14, 1814. It was the morning of September 14 when he observed that the US flag "yet waves."It was during his return by ship to Baltimore that he was inspired to write a poem about his experience. He completed the poem once he arrived in Baltimore. That poem, "Defence of Fort McHenry", was published in the Patriot on September 20, 1814. That poem was adapted to a tune in existence at that time and so became what is known as "The Star Spangled Banner."
