An under-appreciated war.

I visited Fort McHenry a couple of years ago and that visit did indeed enlighten me to the importance of that time in our history.

I'd recommend to add Fort McHenry to anyone's itinerary while visiting the Baltimore or DC area.

Absolutely agree. My first time there was a while back when I was 11 y/o and we were visiting my sister who got married and moved to Baltimore. I went back about 5 years ago and was not disappointed. A true monument to liberty and this great country...
