Lowering the Flag at Fort McHenry


We got a somewhat unique opportunity while visiting Fort McHenry in Baltimore, Maryland. We got to participate in two flag raising activities. The first was the regularly scheduled flag raising of the huge garrison flag and then a short time later, they had to take it down to fix the ropes that were twisted. Both times we got to hold the flag and help keep it untangled. This is a photo of the second time when the flag was being brought down to untangle the rigging.
