139,000 of Tennessee's sons answered their country's call in World War I. Seven of them earned our nation's highest award for gallantry, The Medal of Honor. Since the Medal was introduced, only 3,519 individuals have earned it. Join us this Friday at 1pm CST for our Summer Lecture Series in the Park Visitor Center, hosted by historian Pat Gang, to learn the stories of these seven Tennessee men, and honor their courage and sacrifice.
