Caitlin Davis discusses the legacy of Alvin C York Today In The Upper Cumberland
Alvin Cullum York entered the world as the third of eleven children, born in a two room log cabin in Fentress County in 1887. His prominence would come after he left the Upper Cumberland, transported to the European theater during World War I. York found himself right in the middle of the deadliest battle of the war – the final stanza in the fall of 1918. His heroics came as part of a group that captured more than 130 prisoners in the face of overwhelming odds. York would return to Fentress County hailed as a hero. He used that billing, which he didn’t believe, to make this region better for the young men and women who would come after. The Alvin C. York story remains a source of pride for the Upper Cumberland, and an inspiration to learn through the state park that bares his name just outside of Jamestown. Alvin C. York State Historic Park’s Caitlin Davis joins us to discuss the legacy of Alvin C. York.
