New License Plate
A special license plate commemorating the upcoming 150th anniversary of the American Civil War and Tennessee’s important role in this key event in the nation’s history is now available for pre-order. In announcing the license plate, Tennessee Civil War Preservation Association (TCWPA) President and State Representative Steve McDaniel said ”We hope this new plate will help promote Tennessee as the site of more than 1600 battles during this tragic war and the need today to preserve this hallowed ground.” Proceeds will go to TCWPA for preservation of Tennessee’s endangered Civil War battlefields.
The new license plate will be the first Sesquicentennial license plate in the nation. As soon as 1000 license plates are “preordered,” they will be produced and vehicles across Tennessee will display a license plate “that not only honors the sacrifices of American Soldiers wearing both blue and gray, but helps preserve the hallowed ground where they so gallantly fought.” said Col. James W. Danley, US Army (Retired), and TCWPA’s Vice President.
