World War II Service and Beyond, Tennessee

Cowan, Tennessee

Story Narrative:

Talk about a memorable job you had.

Speaker 1: You talk to me, just tell me your story.

Speaker 2: Okay. From about 17 on, I was in the service. You might say I was in Roosevelt's bottom camp, which was sea seeking. I was in the Army Air Corps going on four years, mostly in the Pacific. After that, I came home and moved to Cowan cause there was no work near Sewanee.

Speaker 1: Were you born in Sewanee?

Speaker 2: Born and raised. Out on the domain, I was right outside of Bell Meade.
