What about Fort DIX?.............😁
So the millions who served and were at Fort Bragg have to eat this with no choice in the matter. Historically....just plain stupid.
Why not Fort George Floyd?
It will always be FT Bragg. It on my HALO school graduation certificate.
Exactly and Soldiers will always call it Bragg.
If this Regime stays in much longer, they will cancel “Fort Liberty” and re-name it “Fort Marx”
The Military is being flushed and all Austin III worries about are names ,D’oh
The name of Fort Benning, Georgia, is also changing. It was named for the colonel who led Georgia's secessionist movement. It will become Fort Moore, named after Lt. Gen. Hal Moore and his wife Julia Moore. Lt. Gen. Moore commanded U.S. forces in Vietnam …
Fort Gordon, Georgia, will now be Fort Eisenhower.
Fort Rucker, Alabama, was named for a slave trader and early Ku Klux Clan leader. It will become Fort Novosel in commemoration of Medal of Honor Recipient, Chief Warrant Officer 4, Michael J. Novosel Sr. Novosel was a World War II Army pilot.
I’m surprised they renamed it Liberty, which according to wokesters is a triggering word associated with white supremacy.
Yeah, I’m retiring.
Well, you know, the funny thing is, language is a populist thing. The government can make these announcements but they can’t force the public to use the new terminology. Just like how some corporation buys a landmark like the Sears Tower, and rename it the “Willis Tower”. Well everyone on the street still call it the “Sears Tower”, no matter what the people on the news or google maps calls it.
I don’t care a lick about Confederate monuments or generals being honored or their names preserved.
I care a whole lot about the psychology of suddenly renaming a mess of Army bases and i doctrinating new Soldiers with a concept that “we” don’t call it Fort Bragg. That’s a name with a hurtful history. Only “they” call it that. Stay away from “them”, and their insistence upon using hurtful words.
I don’t think the crybullies are smart enough to be doing this on purpose, but they’ll be happy to turn veterans around the nation into enemies of the military if that’s the end result.
Even my African American friends call the Redskins - Redskins
another book burning / destruction of history victory for the left.
if your country has no history... has no borders... what are you fighting to defend?
They should have used “Fort Cuck” because that’s what ALL the high Brass have become. Cucks and Poofters run the military now.
Renamed Fort Fronthole, after PFC Fronthole, a transvestite cook in the Spanish American war who died from a venerial disease in Haiti.
exactly
Fort Liberty? How Orwellian of them.
