On this day in 1925 Fort McHenry was established as a National Park under the War Department. In August of 1930 it would later become Fort McHenry National Monument and Historic Shrine through a legislative. Less than a year later on March 3, 1931 “The Star-Spangled Banner” officially became the National Anthem. March 3, 2021 will be remembered for having the perfect weather for our first “big flag” day of the year. National Park Service #NationalAnthemDay | Fort McHenry National Monument & Hist
