Today we remember, never forget. On June 6, 1944, Allied forces launched the largest amphibious invasion in history, attacking the heavily fortified coast of Normandy, France, during World War II. The massive operation—codenamed Operation Overlord—began the liberation of Western Europe from N**i Germany and ultimately paved the way for the Allied victory.

Two hundred and thirty years ago today, Tennessee became the 16th state. Sevier County was here first, established the year before in 1794 and named for John Sevier, the frontier soldier who would go on to become Tennessee's first governor. Over two centuries later, our county still carries his name and the spirit of the people who settled these mountains. Proud to call this place home!
