Nash, a University law professor since 1927, led the field in the [[1940 election]] of three members for City Council which saw [[J. Emmett Gleason]] and Mayor [[George T. Huff]], incumbents, returned to office. They took office September 1, 1940.
 
Nash stepped down from Council in 1943 to enter military service in WW2. He was appointed to the city council in 1946 to fill out the unexpired term of [[William S. Hildreth]]. <ref>{{cite-progress-lindsay|title=Watson Will Not Seek Re-Election|url=http://search.lib.virginia.edu/catalog/uva-lib:2793084/view#openLayer/uva-lib:2793085/3540/3888.5/3/1/0|author=Staff Reports|pageno=1|printdate=January 30, 1948|publishdate=January 30, 1948|accessdate=January 28, 2017 from University of Virginia Library}}</ref>

==WW1 Service==
After high school he attended the Virginia Military Institute, graduating in 1917. On April 11, 1917, Nash enrolled as a provisional second lieutenant in the Marine Corps Reserve for a period of four years. On August 22, 1918, Nash was assigned to an operational squadron, the 93d Aero Squadron.  On September 13, 1918, while flying at an altitude of 700 meters over an enemy aerodrome at Marx-la-Tours, France, Nash was struck by explosive bullet in his left arm and by incendiary in the left shoulder. He crashed behind enemy lines and was picked up by the Germans and brought to an old schoolhouse turned dressing station where his left arm was removed by a German surgeon. The 93d Aero Squadron had been erroneously informed that Nash was dead.  Nash was incapacitated for active service and medically retired June 27, 1919.
==WW2 Service==
