The man often criticized for allowing Washington, D.C., to go undefended during the War of 1812 was Secretary of War John Armstrong Jr. He underestimated the threat posed by the British and failed to adequately prepare the city’s defenses. His decisions contributed to the British capture and burning of the capital in August 1814, which was a significant embarrassment for the United States at the time.
