Fort names

[area walker]

I just read an article about where the rugby 2nd Lts were being assigned. Apparently since covid I have not kept up with the name changes. Can anyone out there up date me. Fort Liberty? Some new name in Texas? I’m confused. Would appreciate help.

Wow. Remember times at Hood and Bragg. Says.

I proudly wear my Ft. Bragg alumni TShirt that I recently purchased at Ranger Joes in Colombus.

I just simply PROTEST the name changes.

That is all from me as a nobody.

Change is tough, and it feels really weird for sure, but personally I am glad to see traitors that supported slavery having their names removed from our military installations.

Sorry, but I can't help but feel a bit leery as to where this will all end - Fort Sharpton, anyone?

Fort Liberty is the biggest joke. They couldn't come up with just one more PC name and gave up?

If you poll'ed 99.999999% of Americans, not a darn one of them (including me) had any clue who Benning or Hood or Bragg or any of those names were.

its simply PC bullshi* to appease people like you. I am sorry you haven't been able to sleep all these years due to your numerous protests and lobbying to get the names changed.

Your user name is WPGRAD, so either A) it's not true, or B) you slept through all your Mil Art classes! Anyone who studied military history knows exactly who all these people were, and the forts were named after them to appease the "conquered states" where they were located. Listen, I'm not some social justice warrior, but just because a decision was made a long time ago doesn't make it something that can never be addressed or changed.

The only thing we learn from history is that we don't learn from history. Be informed, be reasonable, and get upset about things that really matter............and this isn't one of them!
