CULLMAN, Ala. – Thomas Jefferson Denney Camp 1442, Sons of Confederate Veterans met Tuesday night at Cullman’s VFW post. The group welcomed guest speaker, Dr. Michael Bradley.

According to Carl Jones, commander of the Alabama Division of the Sons of Confederate Veterans, “Sons of Confederate Veterans is the oldest hereditary organization in the U.S. We were formed in 1896 by the Confederate Veterans themselves to carry on their legacy and perpetuate their history. We are a charitable organization that is non-racial, non-sectarian and non-political. To be a member you must be descended from an honorably discharged Confederate soldier, sailor or Marine.”
