The
bravery required to
eat a
curry hotter than one can comfortably enjoy.
Ben plucked up the currage to face the ring of
fire and
eat a
vindaloo.
Currahee Mountain is the last mountain in the Blue Ridge chain of mountains. The
name Currahee given by the Cherokee is translated "Stands alone."
During World War
11 the mountain again became a part of a War. The U.S.
Army selected Currahee as the site for its first Parachute Infantry Training Center to be named
Camp Toccoa. The training from this camp differed from parachute jumpers trained in other camps in that their shout as they jumped was "Currahee" instead of "Geronimo" which was commonly used. At the end of the war, the
government turned the camp facilities over to the county. In 1972 the area was being used as an Industrial Complex. Currahe was the shout of US paratroopers during WWII
Paratroopers: currahee !!!!!!
