Jack Daniels was born in 1850 and was one of 13 children. Jack started work at the tender age of 7 years old, and learned a tremendous amount about how to make whiskey.
In 1863 his step father sold Jack his Whiskey still Jack Daniel at the age of 13. 
Jack believed in the mellowing process, even though it added time and cost in the making of his whiskey, it actually stood him apart as producing a product of quality. But Jack thought it was essential, so he perfected his charcoal mellowing process back in 1866.
To this day, this still gives Jack Daniels Whiskey its smooth character and unique taste.
In anticipation of government taxes, Jack Daniel’s registered his distillery in 1866. He was the first to do so, making it the nation’s oldest registered distillery.
In 1904 Jack Daniels entered his Old No. 7 Tennessee sipping whiskey at the World’s Fair held in St. Louis, Missouri. Of the 20 whiskeys from around the world, his was the only one awarded the World’s Fair Gold Medal and honored as the world’s best whiskey. And so his fame was born. The Jack Daniels Distillery is one of the most famous distilleries in America and is well worth a visit.

Esso is an international trade name for ExxonMobil and its related companies. Pronounced /ˈɛsoʊ/ (”S-O”), it is derived from the initials of the pre-1911 Standard Oil, and as such became the focus of much
litigation and regulatory restriction in the United States. In 1973, it was largely replaced in the U.S. by the Exxon brand, while Esso remained widely used elsewhere. In most of the world, the Esso brand and the Mobil brand are the primary brand names of ExxonMobil, with the Exxon brand name still in use only in the United States alongside Mobil.

When : Third Friday of September
POW/MIA Recognition Day is a day of remembrance and hope for the speedy and safe return of American Prisoners of War, and those still Missing in Action. It also seeks the return of the remains of fallen soldiers.
The first official commemoration of POW/MIAs was July 18, 1979. It was the result of resolutions passed in Congress. The first national ceremony was held on this date. Over the next several years, it was held in varying dates of the year. Finally, in 1986, The National League of Families proposed the third Friday in September as a day to recognize and remember POW/MIAs. This date was selected, as it is not associated with any wars. Each year, the president of the United States issues a proclamation on this day.
Did you know? Federal law requires the POW/MIA flag to be flown on the following days:
Armed Forces Day, May 16
Memorial Day, May 25
Flag Day, June 14

POW/MIA Day, 3rd Friday of September
Veterans Day, Nov. 11
