It's amazing how many people (including this one) who copied the soundtrack from the video by the pastor who made up all those wildly innaccurate parts of the story.
Here is another terrible inaccurate account of the shelling of Ft. McHenry, not Ft. Henry. This is a gross misrepresentation of American History. we were not colonies and Britian was not trhe mother country. the shipe hold were not full of prisoners and there was no stack of bodies holding up the falg. This should be taken off the u-tube as to not stter folks from the real story. stevroll
Why do people find it necessary to embellish and falsify stories that are heroic and truthful in their own right?
This version is so wrought with errors, it shouldn't be allowed on You Tube.
We were an independent nation - not colonies - during the War of 1812. It was Fort McHenry - not Fort Henry. Key's mission was to negotiate the release of a planter friend, not all the prisoners. He wasn't allowed to stay on the ship but was sent to another during the bombardment. LEAVE HISTORY ALONE!
@farahnet1 He is neither a fool nor a liar. You are the fool for not knowing the history of your own national anthem. I'll bet you don't even know the name of the song.
Francis Scott Key wrote the LYRICS, but not the song. The song WAS an old English drinking song, and Key used it PURPOSELY to agitate the King of England because by doing so, he had stolen the tune of the most popular drinking song in all of England and he made it into the US national anthem. The king didn't like that at all.
The song dates from the mid-1770s and it was composed for a group of London gentlemen who had recently formed a social club. John Stafford Smith wrote the music , it's an old English drinking song.

The worst part of this is that the truth is so much better! Visit the National Park Service web site nps.gov/fomc/ and see for yourself

The real version of this story is good enough, the priest doesn't have to make up facts.

What happened? The video stopped before the story ended. Is there a part two?
