A free presentation titled "A Day of Infamy" will be held on Wednesday, Dec. 4, at 7 p.m. at the Farragut Community Center. The event will focus on key moments in 20th-century history, including the attack on Pearl Harbor, which led the U.S. into World War II. The public is invited to attend for an evening of education and reflection.
Leading the evening's discourse is Frank Galbraith, a name familiar to many as the retired Farragut Middle School history teacher with a knack for bringing the annals of history to life. According to the Town of Farragut, Galbraith will guide attendees through a timeline covering the end of World War I, the Roaring Twenties, organized crime, the Great Depression, and the rise of Adolf Hitler, leading up to the attack on Pearl Harbor.
Veterans have been specially invited, recognizing their unique perspective on the lasting impact of war. Attendees will have the opportunity to engage with history in a meaningful way, exploring the human experiences behind the geopolitical changes. To balance the serious nature of the evening, light refreshments will be provided, encouraging community and conversation. The event is free and open to all who wish to learn and reflect.
