Members of the Maryland National Guard’s 175th Infantry Regiment, Maryland Defense Force, and Service members from other units and branches march in the footsteps of those who defended Baltimore 200 years ago. During the March of the Defenders, in celebration of the bicentennial of the Star Spangled Banner, more then 400 Service members marched six miles from Patterson Park to North Point on Sept. 11, 2014. In the war of 1812, the Maryland Militia marched to slow the British advance, while the city of Baltimore prepared its defenses.
