Have to say they didn't totally screw it up even though I didn't think they needed to be renamed to start with....
Fort Rucker will become Fort Novosel...
Fort Lee will be named for Arthur Gregg, Deputy Chief of Staff, Logistics for the US Army and Charity Adams, the first African-American woman to be an officer in the Women’s Army Auxiliary Corps.
Fort Pickett will be named named after Van Barfoot, who received the Medal of Honor for his service in WWII and is of Native American descent. Fort A.P. Hill will be renamed for Dr. Mary Walker, a Medal of Honor recipient for her service during the Civil War. Fort Benning will be renamed after Lt. Gen. Hal Moore, a decorated soldier whose time in Vietnam is recounted in the movie, “We Were Soldiers.”
Fort Polk will be renamed after William Henry Johnson, a Black soldier who received the Medal of Honor for heroism as member of first African-American Army unit to engage in combat in WWI.

So much virtue signaling. How about they do something to actually help the veterans?

Democrats hate anyone who has served this country. Democrats and people who vote for democrats hate anyone who has ever served this country. They'd rather see veterans just die off than actually do anything to help.

Navy was smart to name bases after the city they reside in

I don't have a problem with this. Braxton Bragg was a horrible commander and general. He was never a fraction of the general as was NBF.

This is what socialists and communists do. They should be removed from government and removed from the country.

Unless their idea of getting helps means chopping their dicks off. Then the Dems are in full favor of helping.

I can't figure out what he ever did to deserve having an Army base named after him.
