We are looking forward to a presentation by one of TFA's who is a history expert David Lewis. Mr. Lewis will be talking about the Battle of Athens. The Battle of Athens (sometimes called the McMinn County War) was a rebellion led by citizens in Athens and Etowah, Tennessee, against the local government in August 1946. The citizens, including some World War II veterans, accused the local officials of political corruption and voter intimidation. Local citizens, including veterans returning from WWII took up arms against local government in Tennessee and demonstrated one of the rights that the 2nd Amendment was intended to protect. This promises to be an interesting and eye opening topic.

You do not have to be a TFA member to attend nor do you have to be a resident of Nashville. Everyone is welcome and encourage to bring guests - even spouses.

I want to encourage each of you to bring someone with you to the meeting who has not been to one or been to one recently. There's no cost to come (unless you eat because the meal is on you).
