My two LSU homies and I went to Benning during Reagan's second term..

I'd never sign up for this farcical clown country of today..and the ease with which the Uniparty will send our young troops into harm's way.

And I wouldn't be able to keep a straight face when seeing a man in a skirt with Robert Smith lipstick..today that would probably be your CO?

Don’t worry, Russia and China care about this country like they care about climate change.

Hal Moore is better guy to name a base after than Henry Benning ever was, particularly in light of Benning's actions at Chickamauga.

When I was in basic training in the early 90s, we were in formation and a drill sergeant walked over to a guy next to me and started joking with him in a friendly manner. Then he kept telling him how ugly he was. Drill sergeant wasn't kidding, this guy was UGLY. I legit felt bad for the guy. Anyway, after telling him how ugly he was for a couple of minutes, he asked him if his mom fricked E.T.

I met General Moore. He was a humble man that believed in God and Country and took every opportunity to positively mentor young boys and girls in the Auburn area. Great American and served this nation to his last breath. If the name Benning had to be replaced, at least they picked a deserving man to take that honor.

But I'm actually okay w/this name change.

I’m not. It’s a crime to attach Hal Moore’s name to this shithole.

Though not for the political kneejerk movement & caving to the PC Cult's whims..

I do however agree that of what is known, Moore appears a much more deserving man to have namesaked for US Army's Main Infantry training base.

Doing the same shite to bragg and polk wild times we live in.

Polk should never had a military base named after him in the first place. He never served in the U.S. Army and as a commander in the CSA he was insubordinate multiple times to his superiors and was a terrible military tactician and strategist. The only reason he ever led troops was his close friendship with Jefferson Davis.

They won’t stop until they label the south as nazis. We need to bring back the first-hand books of that time in history.
They were losing the war for our money and used slavery to win in the political(the friend of my enemy is my enemy strategy).
I.e. Biden’s get rich from Ukraine scandals. Russia attacks. So they’re attacking Biden’s.

Who cares. No one has ever cared about the names of these bases. I hope they change the names again 5 years from now.

Retired baw. And loving it. Much respect to anyone who has a short tab. The one regret from my military career was not doing what was necessary to earn it.

Too bad that ordinance rifle gunner didn't get a bead on him prior to Pine Mountain.

Tab not scroll. So in correct parlance, I was Ranger qualified. Had the tab but never served in a Ranger unit.
