In "The Star-Spangled Banner," Key describes the sailors who fought in the battle for the British as "hirelings and slaves." What might this indicate about how Key felt about the sailors compared to how he probably felt about the British naval officers?

I think it shows something along the lines of he saw the sailors as below the naval officers since the sailors are being compared to slaves

Answer:

This might indicate Key felt like the sailors were not treated as sailors should. When compared to how he probably felt about the British naval officers, they were treated bad seeing as British naval officers kidnapped and enslaved the American sailors to serve on British ships.
