    Jess Clarkson, Jr., 86, of Kings Mountain is still “tough as a pine knot” like he was when he fought his way across Italy, France and into Germany during World War II.

In our continuing effort to capture as much of the county’s living history as possible, we recently sat down on Clarkson’s, or “Junior’s”, deck to listen to his story.
