Its the military he has.

Its just the army is reallly good at preventing most of the perversity and aztec god worshipping going on in there these days.

I fly this daily, it's been there since Nimrata Randhawa started this history erasing ball rolling. Nobody knows what it is so they don't get upset, but this is the 1st flag of the Confederacy 1st-national-confederate-bi.png (520×416)

I doubt my confederate ancestors hated the Union Government as much as I hate our Government.

No Patton, Sherman, Grant,or any other recognizable names. PC was the top requirement.

The US Army has sought to maintain regimental identities in the interests of esprit de corps. Seems to me that base names fall into that category. Lineage is important.

Since WW2 there has been a persistent push withi the Army to rename Bragg Ft Pershing
Now that the opportunity was presented instead of honoring that iconic figure we get some silly boy scout name for the second largest US military garrison.

True. But there were a lot more Generals than Bragg.

Pershing not only commanded black soldiers in the segregated army, he actually praised them. He got the nickname ‘Black Jack’ (although I believe history has cleaned that up a bit).

These punks have trashed America and our history. I was proud to be a Ft. Bragg SF type from the SFOC in 67 to after RVN etc.
