NO, as long as you stay in the secured area....if you leave the airport, or go through the gate exit area, where you would go to exit the airport, you will have to go back through. You will, however, have to show your boarding pass again, and depending on the security level, may have to show ID.

You only need to go through security again if you leave the "secure area". Simply to change planes, you stay in the secure area and don't have to go through security again -- just go to the gate for the second flight.

I've never been through Memphis, but according to the Memphis Airport website, you do not need to clear security again as long as you stay airside and use the concourse connecting walkways if you need to change concourses: http://www.mscaa.com/?q=passenger/connections
