Hmm, neither pin or choke cherry have a natural range in Tenn., but both can grow there. At the least, I'd have to say some kind of cherry. My grand mother had a cherry tree in her garden, and I spent many hours staring at its branches when I was little.
The weather is despicable where I am just now, so I spent some time googling around. Branch "B" might be something called "autumn olive." The pictures I find show a similar pattern for the bark, tho' there are not spots of red like in the pic, but rusty brown. It has berries that look a little like small cherries, but are longer, and more olive shaped. Also found in Tenn., but originally from Japan.
