The Maryland Society of the War of 1812 hosted its annual Jackson Day General Meeting and luncheon at the historic Maryland Club in Baltimore. The meeting drew a strong turnout, and members elected new officers. Guest speaker Tom McMillan, author of the book “Our Flag Was Still There,” provided an excellent presentation on the Armistead family and the journey of the original Star-Spangled Banner from Ft. McHenry to the Smithsonian.
