War of 1812 Commemoration Why Commemorate the War of 1812 Bicentennial? From 2012 to 2015, the United States Navy and its partners will commemorate the Bicentennial of the War of 1812 and the writing of our National Anthem, the Star Spangled Banner. It is remarkable that 200 years ago, the first declared war in our nation's history was fought against the two nations which have become our closest allies. Many things change in 200 years, but what doesn't change is the importance of sea power in the affairs of maritime nations. Since its birth in 1776, the United States has always been a maritime nation, which means that unobstructed access to and free
use of the world's oceans are essential to our national welfare and prosperity. That's what the United States went to war in 1812 to defend, and that is what the United States Navy has been protecting ever since.
Why is keeping the seas free so important? Here are a few facts about the world: - 70% of the world is covered by the oceans - 80% of the world's people live near the oceans - 90% of all international trade travels on the oceans - 95% of all global communications are transported under the oceans
That's the world America lives in today. Looking at those numbers, one begins to understand the immense importance of ensuring the freedom of the oceans with capable and effective sea services. Since

America's Navy began with only six frigates, American sea power has been essential to countering threats, winning wars and furthering the interests of peace and prosperity worldwide. Today one of those first six frigates that 200 years ago fought in the War of 1812, the USS Constitution, is still a commissioned ship in the United States Navy. Ultimately, the commemoration of the Bicentennial of the War of 1812 is a salute to all of our Sailors and Marines who fought so gallantly against great odds in that conflict, in all of our nation's conflicts between then and now, and those who are today defending freedom around the world–from the mountains of Afghanistan to the coasts of Africa to the Straits of Hormuz–and standing ready to provide compassionate humanitarian aid from Haiti to Japan to wherever catastrophe strikes. The Navy, Marine Corps and Coast Guard are what they are because of the quality of the people that served over the last 200 years, and the tens of thousands of Sailors and Marines now making sacrifices every day, something that America can be very grateful has not changed over the past 200 years. If America remembers the lessons of the naval war of 1812, lessons paid for with the lives of Sailors and Marines, then America can be confident that the nation will always answer Francis Scott Key's question in the affirmative: "Oh, say does that Star-Spangled Banner yet wave, O'er the land of the free, and the home of the brave?"

Display Ship Barry The DS (Display Ship) Barry is one of only three remaining Forrest Shermanclass destroyers. Commissioned September 7, 1956, she is the third ship to bear the name of the illustrious Revolutionary War naval hero, Commodore John Barry. The USS Barry (DD 933) supported the 1958 Marine and Army airborne unit landing in Beirut, Lebanon, and she was a member of the task force in 1962 that quarantined Cuba in response to evidence that Soviet missiles had been installed on the island. Credited with destroying over 1,000 enemy structures, Barry earned two battle stars for her service during the Vietnam conflict. In the early 1970s, she was homeported in Athens, Greece, as part of the Navy’s forward deployment program. Barry was decommissioned in 1982 and began her new career as a permanent public display ship in 1984. Used for training, shipboard familiarization, and as a ceremonial platform, the DS Barry is one of the most popular visitor destinations on the Washington Navy Yard. DS Barry is open for self-guided tours Monday through Friday from 9 a.m. to 5 p.m. and Saturday from 10 a.m. to 5 p.m.
DS Barry is closed every Sunday and some federal holidays. Tour guides are available upon request. For more information on guided tours and holiday closures please call (202) 433-3377.
Latrobe Gate What was once the main entrance to the Washington Navy Yard is now restricted to entry by residents of flag officers quarters and their authorized guests. Latrobe Gate also garners historical distinction as the oldest, continuously manned Marine sentry post in the nation. The Latrobe Gate is one of the few structures on the Navy Yard to escape the fire in 1814 when the British invaded Washington. Prior to the invasion, Commandant of the Navy Yard, Captain Tingey, was ordered by the Secretary of the Navy to burn the Washington Navy Yard lest it be captured by the enemy. Enemy troops briefly entered the Yard and burned the buildings that had not been set on fire by the Americans. As soon as the British departed, the local populace began plundering not only the untouched stores but also the two residences on the Yard. Soon afterward, Tingey strongly recommended

National Museum of the United States Navy The U.S. Navy Museum is housed in the former Breech Mechanism Shop of the old Gun Factory (building 76) on the Washington Navy Yard. Built between 1887 and 1899, the 600-foot-long building was one of several shops on the Yard that produced ordnance, missile components and electronic equipment until 1962. In 1961 Admiral Arleigh Burke, Chief of Naval Operations, recognizing that the Washington Navy Yard was the Navy’s oldest and one of its most historic sites, persuaded Secretary of the Navy John B. Connally to establish the U.S. Naval His-
torical Display Center, forerunner of the Navy Museum. The Museum opened in 1963 to collect, preserve and display naval artifacts, models, documents and fine art. Through its exhibits, the Museum chronicles the history of the United States Navy from the Revolution to the present. The exhibits commemorate the Navy’s wartime heroes and battles, as well as its peacetime contributions in such fields as exploration, diplomacy, navigation and humanitarian service. Tools, equipment and personal materials offer the visitor a unique opportunity to gain an understanding of naval customs, way of life and contributions to society. The Navy Museum presents more than 225 years of naval and maritime history, tracing wars, battles and crises from the American Revolution through the Korean War.

NSA Annapolis provides base operating support to the United States Naval Academy (USNA), North Severn complex, and one satellite facility, the Naval Research Laboratory at Chesapeake Beach Detachment in Randle Cliff, Md. NSA Annapolis’ primary purpose is supporting the Academy and the Brigade of Midshipmen, by providing flagshipquality base operating support so Academy leadership can focus on their mission of developing Midshipmen mentally, morally and physically into future leaders. The support provides for 6600 personnel - 4400 Midshipmen plus 1600 faculty/staff, 400 officers, 200 Sailors and their families. NSA Annapolis provides services that include security, fire protection, fleet and family support, safety, Morale Welfare and Recreation, public works, bachelor and family housing at a level that complements the world-class academic and professional atmosphere set by USNA.
United States Naval Academy The U. S. Naval Academy’s mission is to develop midshipmen morally, mentally and physically and to imbue them with the
38
highest ideals of duty, honor and loyalty in order to provide graduates who are dedicated to a career of naval service and have potential for future development in mind and character to assume the highest responsibilities of command, citizenship and government. The Naval Academy was founded in 1845 by the Secretary of the Navy, George Bancroft, in what is now historic Annapolis, MD. The history of the Academy has often reflected the history of the United States itself. As the U.S. Navy has moved from a fleet of sail and steam-
powered ships to a high tech fleet of nuclearpowered submarines and surface ships as well as supersonic aircraft, the Academy has changed also. The Naval Academy gives young men and women the up-to-date academic and professional training needed to be effective naval and marine officers in their assignments after graduation. The grounds, known as “The Yard,” feature a number of attractions open to the public including the Naval Academy Chapel (www.usna.edu/Chaplains), which houses the Crypt of John Paul Jones, the Naval Academy Museum (www.usna. edu/Museum) and the Armel-Leftwich Visitor Center (www.navyonline.com) showcasing interactive exhibits, pictorial displays, the award-winning film, “To Lead and to Serve” and an extensive gift shop. You and your family are encouraged to tour the academy any time of the year during regular visiting hours (9 a.m. to 5 p.m. daily). You can take a guided tour with a commercial service in Annapolis or through the academy’s own ArmelLeftwich Visitor Center. Access to the Academy grounds is limited. Please check the current security restrictions before planning a visit. All visitors over the age of 16 must have a valid picture ID. More information can be found at www.usna.edu.

Ceremonial Support
United States Navy Ceremonial Guard Established in 1931, The Navy Ceremonial Guard is the official Honor Guard of the United States Navy, with the primary mission of representing the Navy in Presidential, Joint Armed Services, Navy And public ceremonies in the nation’s capital, across the country and around the world. The Ceremonial Guard is comprised of approximately 200 junior Navy enlisted men and women. Guardsmen are hand selected from the Navy’s Great Lakes Recruiting Command based on stringent physical and ethical standards. Only the tallest (a minimum 6'0" for men and 5'10" for females), fittest and most motivated seamen recruits are picked to serve alongside the Navy’s finest junior Sailors. Upon reporting to the command, guard recruits embark on an intensive 10 week training program, which is designed to test their resolve, commitment, and endurance. Guardsmen are trained to maintain stoic, motionless military tightness for extended periods of time, so that they will be prepared to hold their bearing through the entirety of the longest of Military Ceremonies. Only the strongest willed Sailors
42
persevere. They are trained in the areas of rifle drill manual and marching as well as the daily labor of maintaining the rigorous physical and uniform standards demanded of Ceremonial Guardsmen. Guardsmen and trainees alike spend hours every day pressing their uniforms and shining their shoes and belt brass. Meticulous inspections are performed prior to every ceremony. Once recruits graduate training and
become Ceremonial Guardsmen, they are required to join one of the Guard’s specialized platoons, including the Ceremonial Drill Team, Color Guard, Firing Party, and Casket Bearer Platoons. Guardsmen perform in a myriad of high visibility Navy and Joint Service Ceremonies. Navy elements have marched in Presidential Inauguration Parades, State Funeral Processions, and numerous annual celebrations. Full Honors Presidential Arrivals at the White House, Navy and Joint Service Wreath Laying Ceremonies at the Navy Memorial and the Tomb of the Unknown Soldier, and Chief of Naval Operations Arrivals at the Washington Navy Yard are among the many events that the Ceremonial Guard executes routinely with unparalleled military bearing and accuracy. The Guard’s most somber duty is the delivering of funeral honors at every Navy funeral service conducted in Arlington National Cemetery. This honor is performed by the Guard’s casket bearers, firing party and marching elements on a daily basis and over twenty times every week. The Navy Ceremonial Guard is the face of the Navy and publicly personifies our Navy core values, maintaining the highest standards of personal and professional conduct. These young sailors represent the best and brightest of today as well as the future leaders of the Navy.

The Local Area Our Nation’s Capital, home of Naval District Washington, is teeming with historical landmarks that symbolize our American history, patriotism and naval tradition. Buildings constructed during the time of our founding fathers now stand as focal points in the administration of our government, and, more importantly, some of the most interesting locations to visit in the country, if not the world. Museums take us back to this illustrious past, giving us an opportunity to view the artifacts and lifestyles of some of our more prominent American leaders, as well as historic milestones that have forever changed our lives. Washington, D.C. is the leader in points of historical interest in our nation.
WASHINGTON, D.C. 202-789-7000 • www.dchomepage.net
The District of Columbia, named for George Washington and Christopher Columbus in 1791, is seat of the federal government and the nation’s capital. This 63-square-mile city boasts a population of more than a half million residents with hundreds of sights and points of interest that attract visitors from around the world. The city’s climate is described as humid subtropical with the temperature in winter averaging 34 degrees and 77 degrees during the summer, although these are subject to wide fluctuations. Maj. Pierre L’Enfant designed Washington D.C. in 1791. It was the first
44
city planned for a specific purpose. L’Enfant laid out the city around numerous circles and squares connected by straight boulevards. The layout has often been described as reminiscent of a series of wagon wheels. This design, often described as brilliant, allowed for growth; however L’Enfant could not have foreseen the advent of automobiles in a nation of more than 230 million people. Four sections make up Washington, northeast, southeast, northwest and southwest. Any address is always followed by an abbreviation of the appropriate section of town NE, SE, NW and SW. Washington has one of the most comprehensive and attractive public transportation systems on the East Coast,
with Metro at the top of it all. The Metro not only connects the numerous sights in the city with each other, but the subway also branches out to parts of Virginia and Maryland. For more information regarding the Metro or to find the closest stop to a particular sight, call 202637-7000.

Famous Marylanders include Benjamin Banneker, Francis Scott Key, Edgar Allen Poe and Upton Sinclair and Babe Ruth. The bravery of Maryland troops in the Revolution won the state its nickname, “The Old Line State.” Named after Queen Henrietta Maria, wife of Charles I of England, Maryland is the eighth smallest state in the union with a total area of 10,460 square miles. Two hundred Europeans settled Maryland in 1634 and the state has flourished ever since. Maryland was the seventh of the original 13 states to ratify the Constitution on Apr. 28, 1788. In the War of 1812, a British fleet attempted to seize Fort McHenry in Baltimore. During a 25-hour bombardment on Sept. 13-14, 1814, American troops successfully defended the fort, inspiring Marylander Frances Scott Key to write the Star-Spangled Banner, which later became our national anthem. The historic sights of Maryland are a great attraction for tourists and residents alike. Call 1-800-5431036 for Maryland tourist information.
