Paddling the Anacostia River with your dog, you’d never guess it was once a bustling port where Commodore Joshua Barney made his last stand at the Battle of Bladensburg—while most Americans fled in panic, Barney held firm until he ran out of ammo and took a musket ball to the thigh. Joined by sailor Charles Ball, who escaped slavery and fought beside him before being sold south and writing his harrowing memoir, their legacy lives on at Fort Lincoln Cemetery, where earthworks, Civil War cannons, and a monument honor their sacrifice. Barney’s wound eventually claimed his life in Pittsburgh—proof that history remembers not just the victors, but those who refused to run.
