Rise up!
I didn’t even know they had changed Fort Benning….i did basic training there in 2000
:flabbynsick:
Also, they wasted money to change the name back (while constantly complaining about government spending), and they shytted on a well respected cac and his wife from the Vietnam era in the process after changing the name back to Benning from Moore (named after LTG Hal Moore and his wife, Julia) :mjlol:

No, its not. Your emotionality has no place in this. They basically are hiding and rewriting history before your face so they can do the same shyt to your ass and the generations AFTER you like what they did to our ancestors. History forgotten ends up being repeated.

Dallas, Texas but living in Houston, Texas
Fort Cavazos, was originally Fort Hood which was named after a Confederate general, is named after Richard Cavazos, the first Hispanic four star general who was posthumously awarded the Medal of Honor for his actions in the Korean War.

Watch bytch ass try Hegseth try to rename it back to Hood to honor some private with the last name Hood who saved a case of Miller from falling into enemy hands in 'Nam back in 1970 or some other miscellaneous nonsense. :mjpls:

Confederate soliders should not be honored. What is wrong with you?

Above the fray.


This Army base was renamed for 2 Black Army pioneers. Then the name changed back.

Jul 25, 2025
Fort Gregg-Adams was renamed three years ago to honor two Black Army pioneers but in July, the name was changed back to Fort Lee.

President Trump restored the names of nine Army bases the Biden administration renamed in 2022. The $39 million Biden-era project was part of a Congressional mandate to remove all Confederate symbols from military installations. Trump’s move will restore the original base names, but with new namesakes. Fort Gregg- Adams was one of those that was renamed three years ago and was the first Army installation named to honor Black Americans.

Charity Adams was the first black woman to become an officer in the Women’s Army Auxiliary Corps (WAAC), later known as the Women’s Army Corps (WAC). She commanded the 6 Triple 8 Central Postal Directory Battalion and rose to be the highest ranking.

Lt. Gen. Arthur James Gregg was the Army’s first Black 3 star General. He eventually finished his career as the director of all Army logistic operations around the world.

While Gregg-Adams no longer appears on base signs, the children spoke to PBS News to share their parents’ accomplishments and their hopes for their memories to live on.

a lot of these bases getting changed back to their original names are being named after different people is why. the original bragg and the new bragg are not the same guy
