The Battle of Fort McHenry. Francis Scott Key was present at the battle, so he wrote a poem about exactly what he saw.
Francis Scott Key never served as a solider in any war. However he was an American lawyer during the War of 1812. He was aboard the British ship HMS Tonnant, as the guests of three British officers to negotiate the release of a prisoner, Dr. William Beanes. Beanes was a resident of Upper Marlboro, Maryland and had been captured by the British after he placed rowdy stragglers under citizen's arrest with a group of men. Unable to leave the ship and unable to do anything Key watched the bombarding of the American forces at Fort McHenry during the Battle of Baltimore on the night of September 13-September 14, 1814. On his way back to his home in Baltimore Key was inspired by the previous nights battle and penned a poem what is now known as the Star-Spangled-Banner or the United States national anthem.
