Hey look, it's a flag! That's a nice flag right there. The stars 'n' stripes has an inextricable relationship with starforts, in that each time a new US flag is approved (historically this has happened when there's a need to add more stars, representing more states having been admitted to the union), the first place it's displayed is over Fort McHenry in Baltimore, Maryland...and only rockets (with a red glare) and bombs (bursting in air) can legally illuminate this new flag! Okay I made that last part up, but the rest of it is true.
