Even before Tennessee
became a state the residents were quick to respond. "Overmountain"
settlers volunteered during the Revolutionary War and were key factors
in the battle of King's Mountain in October 1780. Tennessee's status
as the "Volunteer State" was solidified when the US War Department
called for volunteers in the War with Mexico. Moving quickly to meet
their alotted quota of 2,800 recruits, state officials were overwhelmed
by 30,000 volunteers. In 1902 the Atlanta Constitution used the term
"Volunteers" to describe the football team when recounting a match
between UT and Georgia Tech. The nickname did not become official
until 1905. Given the state's rich military tradition and the pride
of Tennesseans in their heritage, the name was a natural fit. |
