Holy shit.... we are getting Forts Bragg and Benning back!!!

[sirhrmechanic]

Today SecDef Pete Hegseth referenced both forts with their proper names and word is that in throwing out the DEI Bullshit of the last few years... these and other bases are going back to their proper names.

Yes, I know... Braxton Bragg was a second rate general... That he was a Confederate... I don't give a shit.

But Bragg and Benning have been home to (even birthplace of) thousands of soldiers and their families for generations. It's not just a fort. It's a home and a town and a community. Changing the name to appease a bunch of commie shitbags was a travesty.

And, yeah, Hal Moore (namesake for the new Fort Benning) was a hell of a guy (met him once in the 1990's when his first book came out). But they can name something new after him... Not change the name of another institution!

Now, can we also take the USS Harvey Milk out and use it for target practice? Yes, that Fucking ship named after a dick-sucking San Francisco activist faggot whose only claim to fame was getting gunned down in front of DIane Feinstein and turning her into an anti-gun-crusading China-leaking dottering POS for decades). And nuke it... don't just sink it as a reef. Don't need a bunch of gay Coral growing near some island. Do it fast before becomes the Gayest Ship in the Navy... in perpetuity?

The wins keep on coming!

Can’t wait for the reee to start when he changes it back

Regardless of what the civil war was about history shouldn't be erased and it should be remembered a group of people rose up against the government.


I hate name changing mother fuckers. If your name is this it's this forever.

 

[Redlion]

What about Ft. Hood?

 

[Fig]

Similarly, you can't blame the Indians for changing the names of their cities back to what they were before the British made them a colony.

Yeah, because 'Trashfilledshithole' sounds so much better than Calcutta or Bombay!

It sounds like they are all reverting back.

History is often (in fact usually) unpleasant in some way or another. It shouldn't be erased. It should be preserved and studied and, yes, learned from. Perhaps so that unpleasantness can be avoided in the futue.

If all the history makes you feel good and happy, then it's probably not history. It's probably propaganda.

It's hilarious that all the same leftist Democrats today going "But who is going to pick the crops and fix our roofs and run our happy little ethnic restaurants after you deport the illegals" are saying exactly the same as those Democrats in 1850 saying "But who will pick our cotton after you free our slaves." La plus que ca change, la plus que c'est la meme chose!

Change the name of military bases to whatever the foxtrot you want.....But, leave Denali TF alone.

Denali: From the native word Deenaalee. Meaning "The High One."

Mount Stoner it is!!! ;-)

So you are saying we should take the Harvey Milk out, bend it over, and give it the big one good and hard?

Nuke from Orbit would be safer. And less gay!

[MK20]

Well, if you are going to nuke it from orbit, at least make sure it is parked in San Fran at the time.

 

[Ronws]

Probably the stupidest thing I have ever read was about a sports commentator who was going to call an University of Virginia football game but they replaced him at the last because his name was Robert Lee. They didn't want anyone with a name that goes back to the Civil War on the Confederate side to be even heard.

So, here is a pic of Robert Lee, the one commies thought would make everyone think of taking advantage of minorities.

He is of asian descent. One of his highlights is that he speaks fluent Mandarin

The USNS Harvey Milk might be one thing, but what about the USNS Earl Warren? One was a gay administrator for San Francisco, the other sent tens of thousands of Americans into internment camps and later demolished the Constitution as Chief Justice of SCOTUS. That one is an absolute slap to the face of all Americans.

Coming soon in the same class of ship, the USNS Ruth Bader Ginsburg...

[ggmanning]

I live 30 minutes from Bragg. The name never changed, just the signs.

 

[Srgt. Hulka]

What about Ft. Hood?

And Fort Polk in Louisiana.

 

[sirhrmechanic]

Or if my best buddies is leaving for there on Saturday to be a command historian.

Staying here at the Schloss for a couple of days while his stuff gets moved. I told him this afternoon “Guess what… you are not going to Ft. Liberty after all… it was on the news. No transfers to Ft. Liberty.”

He looked sort of shocked until I said… it’s going back to being called Fort Bragg! His first words… “Braxton Bragg was a buffoon!” Classic historian response!

But he is mucho happy!

He said he would have called it “Fort Gavin.” Not a bad choice… so hopefully they use that name somewhere!!! General Gavin was a hell of a field commander!!!

Call it the Gulf of the Americas… because that’s what it is. North and Central. Not quite South…. But we can let them have some crumbs.

And Fort Polk in Louisiana.

My Home away from home during the spring, summer and fall of 1970. Had a lot of good men helping us get ready for our future, fighting communists and guerrilla communist Americans when we finished with the Vietnamese communists. Then went to Benning, then to Ft. Huachuca, Then to the storied jungles of Southeast Asia.

Darned surprised that they didn’t rename Huachuca. Must have some kind of Indian or Mexican or Spanish meaning to it and sure don’t want those proper Bostonians, to get upset that we might possibly insult someone of Mexican or Spanish or Indian descent

Yeah...I was born in AK. Even when I was very young and all the maps had it labeled as McKinley, almost everyone referred to that magestic monstrosity as Denali. It doesn't matter what the government WANTS us to call it.

Besides, Chevrolet will have to have a real big recall.
