Star Spangled BannerFSK was a lawyer from Mass during the W1812
He went to a British ship off the coast of Baltimore to ask the captain to let a doctor friend of his go.
The captain agreed but had them stay on the ship because it was about to bomb fort mcHenry.
FSK had to watch the bombing and in the morning saw that our flag still flew over the fort, meaning the USA had not given up.
This inspired him to write the star spangled banner.
