Our monuments and memorials to the Confederacy are in memory
and honor of those convicted in their opposition to the Union which successfully prosecuted that of which George III was incapable 90 years prior. They were and are fellow Americans in the spirit and the dedication and desire for Freedom.
God and the world has spoken otherwise.
Those dedicated to eradicating their commemoration-in the community and in the nation’s civil and military history are responsible for helping to forget this legacy of division -a risk which remains consequent of the freedoms we continue to enjoy, and increases the probability of such recurrence and division.
The sentiments and concerns people echo today for “Civil War 2.0” are a partially consequence of attempts at eradication of this history and its commemoration in our schools and communities-which is necessary to commence successfully prosecute a second such conflict.
Something we all must NOT let occur.
That said-on an active duty US military base the commemoration should be strictly historical- and not active.
“...which is necessary to successfully prosecute a second such conflict”
sheesh—I previewed that several times and missed!!!
