Salute to Tennessee’s Fallen
Salute to Tennessee’s Fallen “is a photographic war memorial that honors Tennessee’s military men and women killed in action since 9/11, stated Chris Albrecht, president and public information officer for United Veterans Council of East Tennessee, in a press release as Memorial Day approaches.
This tribute is being displayed for public viewing in the showroom of Rusty Wallace Nissan, 4515 Clinton Highway in Knoxville, from 9 a.m. to 8 p.m., daily, through Memorial Day, Monday, May 27.
“Unlike brick-and-mortar memorials, Salute to Tennessee’s Fallen is designed to travel and includes military and civilian photographs of the individuals, their hometown, their rank and branch of service and the date and place of their death. This memorial is available to be exhibited across Tennessee,” Albrecht stated in the release.
“Its legacy will be that these men and women will be remembered, and their names will be spoken, while helping to lessen the grief of their families,” he added.
