I was completely unaware of this event that took place in Athens, TN. in 1946. I did not know an armed revolt by WWII veterans ever took place during our lifetime. A very sobering video to say the least.
Now the 2nd Amendment is a little clearer as to its true purpose.
Be sure to see the actual photos at the end showing the plaques describing the event.

A lot of things have been discussed in this forum years ago that are more or less buried now, unless you know to look for them.

Jim & TAM: I have silently criticized others for making a post with searching first, then I did the same thing. It won't happen again! Regards, Dave

In your defense, the search function leaves a lot to be desired.

Dave, no problem. I've been busted more than once myself.
