Wasn’t Ft Totten NY built under the supervision of General Lee? I guess we’ll have to tear it down. I always admired the portrait of Stonewall Jackson that was on one of the walls in the O Club. If we start removing names because a few people are offended, then we have to remove all the military names, especially those from 1800 - 1900. Jackson, Scott, Crook, Custer, Howard, Sheridan, Miles, Terry, Pershing et.al.. There are many who feel they were offended by their actions against a minority. What they did or didn’t do, is part of our history regardless if it is right or wrong. $#*+ happens.
