CLARKSVILLE, Tenn. (CLARKSVILLENOW) – Korean War Veterans will receive a free sandwich at Mission BBQ July 27. The day is the official holiday of “National Korean War Veterans Armistice Day” and the restaurant will honor the service of the men and women involved in the conflict.

On this day, in 1953, the United States, the People’s Republic of China, North Korea, and South Korea signed an armistice suspending all hostilities and securing peace on the Korean Peninsula. The three year conflict is often referred to as “The Forgotten War”.

Guests can enjoy the free sandwich on Saturday, July 27 from 11 a.m. – 10 p.m. As always, the restaurant will play the National Anthem at noon.
