Clinton E. Riddle
THE UNIVERSITY OF TENNESSEE KNOXVILLE AN INTERVIEW WITH CLINTON E. RIDDLE FOR THE VETERAN’S ORAL HISTORY PROJECT CENTER FOR THE STUDY OF WAR AND SOCIETY DEPARTMENT OF HISTORY INTERVIEWED BY G. KURT PIEHLER SETH M. WOMACK DUNFORD HALL MARCH 19, 2002 TRANSCRIPT BY SETH M. WOMACK REVIEWED BY CARRIE DAVISSON MAGGIE L.YANCEY G. KURT PIEHLER: This begins an interview with Clinton Riddle on March 20, 2002 in Knoxville, Tennessee with Kurt Piehler and … SETH WOMACK: Seth Womack. PIEHLER: I’d like to just begin with a very formal question. When were you born and where were you born? CLINTON E. RIDDLE: I was born on February 24, 1921 in Loudon County. PIEHLER: And your parents—their names were Eva Grace Riddle and Samuel Elmer Riddle? RIDDLE: That’s correct. PIEHLER: And could you just tell me, I guess, a little about your parents? RIDDLE: My father was a farmer. That’s all he knew was farming, and my mother was a housewife. I was the only child and being the oldest and youngest in our family, they say the only child is petted! I disagree with that. (Laughter) But I grew up; I went to grammar school at the Luttrell School which is a country school up to the eighth grade. Then I started to school in Sweetwater, graduated from the eighth grade, went to Sweetwater high school, [and] graduated in 1941. The last year, senior year, I took Diversified Occupations. I took Department Store Management, and I worked at McKinney’s department store during the school year and the following summer up to Thanksgiving. -
