Brier Creek
By Dess Smith,

The Times
The Brier Creek Chapter, Georgia Society Sons of
the American Revolution held its monthly meeting on
Thursday night, November 2, 2023, at Walls Diner at
7:00. With President Wayne Howard presiding, there
were 10 in attendance. After the pledge of Allegiance
to theU.S. Flag and the pledge to the SAR, Compatriots
John Joyner and Lee Herron presented the new Brier
Creek Artillery & Militia flag to the Chapter. Every
event that the Artillery attends, they will fly the new
flag. President Wayne then introduced Compatriots
Steve Burke and Bernard Martin to present their
program on "Artillery through the Ages". After a very
interesting program, President Wayne discussed our
upcoming December Christmas meeting to be held
at Compatriot John Fitzner's clubhouse right on the
banks of Brier Creek and just a few miles from the
battlefield. It will be a covered dish supper with all
the trimmings. Steve Burke and Bernard Martin are
pictured. Photo by Dess Smith.
