Why Commemorate theWar of 1812 Bicentennial?
From 2012 to 2015, the United StatesNavy and its partners will commemoratethe Bicentennial of the War of 1812 andthe writing of our National Anthem, theStar Spangled Banner. It is remarkablethat 200 years ago, the first declared warin our nation’s history was fought againstthe two nations which have become ourclosest allies. Many things change in 200years, but what doesn’t change is theimportance of sea power in the affairs ofmaritime nations.Since its birth in 1776, the United States
has always been a maritime nation, whichmeans that unobstructed access to and free
use of the world’s oceans are essential toour national welfare and prosperity. That’swhat the United States went towar in 1812to defend, and that is what the UnitedStates Navy has been protecting ever since.
Why is keeping the seasfree so important?
Here are a few facts about the world:- 70% of the world is covered by theoceans- 80% of the world’s people live near theoceans- 90% of all international trade travels onthe oceans- 95% of all global communications aretransported under the oceans
That’s the world America lives in today.Looking at those numbers, one begins tounderstand the immense importance ofensuring the freedom of the oceans withcapable and effective sea services. SinceAmerica’s Navy began with only six frig-

ates, American sea power has been essen-tial to countering threats, winning warsand furthering the interests of peace andprosperity worldwide. Today one of thosefirst six frigates that 200 years ago foughtin the War of 1812, the USS Constitution,is still a commissioned ship in the UnitedStates Navy.Ultimately, the commemoration of the
Bicentennial of the War of 1812 is asalute to all of our Sailors and Marineswho fought so gallantly against greatodds in that conflict, in all of our nation’sconflicts between then and now, andthose who are today defending freedomaround the world–from the mountains ofAfghanistan to the coasts of Africa to theStraits of Hormuz–and standing ready toprovide compassionate humanitarian aidfrom Haiti to Japan to wherever catastro-phe strikes. The Navy, Marine Corps andCoast Guard are what they are becauseof the quality of the people that servedover the last 200 years, and the tens ofthousands of Sailors and Marines nowmaking sacrifices every day, somethingthat America can be very grateful has notchanged over the past 200 years.If America remembers the lessons of
the naval war of 1812, lessons paid forwith the lives of Sailors and Marines, thenAmerica can be confident that the nationwill always answer Francis Scott Key’squestion in the affirmative:“Oh, say does that Star-Spangled Ban-
ner yet wave,O’er the land of the free, and the home
of the brave?”For more information on the Bicenten-

Display Ship Barry
The DS (Display Ship) Barry is one ofonly three remaining Forrest Sherman-class destroyers. Commissioned September7, 1956, she is the third ship to bear thename of the illustrious Revolutionary Warnaval hero, Commodore John Barry. TheUSS Barry (DD 933) supported the 1958Marine and Army airborne unit landing inBeirut, Lebanon, and she was a memberof the task force in 1962 that quarantinedCuba in response to evidence that Sovietmissiles had been installed on the island.Credited with destroying over 1,000
enemy structures, Barry earned two battlestars for her service during the Vietnamconflict. In the early 1970s, she was home-ported in Athens, Greece, as part of theNavy’s forward deployment program.Barry was decommissioned in 1982 andbegan her new career as a permanentpublic display ship in 1984. Used for train-ing, shipboard familiarization, and as aceremonial platform, the DS Barry is oneof the most popular visitor destinations onthe Washington Navy Yard.DS Barry is open for self-guided tours

Latrobe Gate
Whatwas once themain entrance to theWashington Navy Yard is now restrictedto entry by residents of flag officers quar-ters and their authorized guests. LatrobeGate also garners historical distinction asthe oldest, continuously manned Marinesentry post in the nation.The Latrobe Gate is one of the few
structures on the Navy Yard to escapethe fire in 1814 when the British invad-ed Washington. Prior to the invasion,Commandant of the Navy Yard, CaptainTingey, was ordered by the Secretary ofthe Navy to burn the Washington NavyYard lest it be captured by the enemy.Enemy troops briefly entered the Yard andburned the buildings that had not been seton fire by the Americans. As soon as theBritish departed, the local populace beganplundering not only the untouched storesbut also the two residences on the Yard.Soon afterward, Tingey strongly recom-
mended erecting a 10-foot-high brick wallaround the Yard to prevent a recurrenceof this activity.The Joint Committee on Landmarks
has designated the Latrobe Gate of theWashington Navy Yard a Category IILandmark, which contributes significantlyto the cultural heritage and visual beautyof the District of Columbia.

Captain John Smith first exploredMaryland in 1608. Since that time thestate has furnished the nation with someof its most brilliant diplomats and patriots.Famous Marylanders include BenjaminBanneker, Francis Scott Key, Edgar AllenPoe and Upton Sinclair and Babe Ruth.The bravery of Maryland troops in theRevolution won the state its nickname,“The Old Line State.” Named after QueenHenrietta Maria, wife of Charles I of Eng-land, Maryland is the eighth smallest statein the union with a total area of 10,460square miles.Two hundred Europeans settled Mary-
land in 1634 and the state has flourishedever since. Maryland was the seventh ofthe original 13 states to ratify the Con-stitution on Apr. 28, 1788. In the War of1812, a British fleet attempted to seize FortMcHenry in Baltimore. During a 25-hourbombardment on Sept. 13-14, 1814,American troops successfully defended thefort, inspiring Marylander Frances ScottKey to write the Star-Spangled Banner,which later became our national anthem.The historic sights of Maryland are a greatattraction for tourists and residents alike.Call 1-800-543-1036 for Maryland touristinformation.
