Do You Have Civil War Ancestors???

Just a short blurb, if any of you have ancestors who fought in the Confederacy, during the American Civil War, you may be eligible for a United Daughter's of the Confederacy medal. Not monetary award, wishful thinking, nice try... Check out an article from Wednesday October 7th, Wilson County Post. You may find out more by contacting: Robert Hatton, at the following website: www.roberthatton329.com . Good luck!!! ~Jer

Congratulations to all of our Navy Veterans!!!

Cherokee Steak House

The get together of members who worked the Wilson County Fair Booth, went well, and was well attended. Those who made it for the boat ride, had an enjoyable but somewhat cool time. By cool, I mean cold, anyway, a good time was had by all. Looking forward to the next meeting. Don't forget, we have interim meetings at the Old Neighborhood Grill on West Main in Lebanon every Wednesday morning at 0900. Come by, have breakfast with us, everyone is welcome. Thanks, ~ Sarge~
