Garrison Flag

The large flag that was ordered for Fort McHenry and flew during the battle which inspired Francis Scott Key, is displayed at the Smithsonian National Museum of American History in Washington, D.C.  Here are two pictures of the flag. Can you imagine this giant flag on a pole?!?!

The first picture is a view of the flag in the display as is.
The second picture is the flag hanging with additional material added to complete the flag's missing pieces.
