How did the ''rockets' red glare'' and'' bombs bursting in air'' prove that the flag still flew over Fort McHenry?
Some people believe that the flag could be seen by the light of the explosions going off but that is not true. The simple fact that shooting was still going on proved that the forsat had not surrendered and thus the flag was still flying. If the fort had been taken there would have been no need to continue firing.ANSWER:Historians have debated over this topic for years, and no one can prove that the flag could not be seen, and no one can prove that the flag could be seen as the song suggests. The only way to know the truth was to be there, at the time the battle happened, and I don't believe that anyone from that period of time is still living.
