Morning tour at Fort Loudoun
Noncommissioned officers from five nations and the United States tour Fort Loudoun State Historic Area Sept. 20, 2016, in Vonore, Tenn., as part of a cultural day. The area is a Tennessee River peninsula that surrounds Fort Loudoun. The fort once housed British soldiers as a western outpost from 1756-1760 and served relations with the Cherokee. The Air National Guard's I.G. Brown Training and Education Center is hosting the NCOs this week for the International Noncommissioned Officer Development Seminar.
