Are you aware that some of the major US Army forts are named after confederate Generals? And you and I pay to support these facilities??!!
(Talk about something that never gets a mention in the news!)
Try Ft Bragg NC---home of the 82d Airborne---named for Braxton Bragg, confederate general. (So is Ft Bragg, CA)
Try Ft Gordon GA, named for John B Gordon----also a confedereate general
Try Ft Hood Texas, named for John B Hood---confederate general
Try Ft Polk, LA, named after Leonidas Polk----confederate general!
But the most amazing one of all: Ft Lee Virginia, named after----you guessed it---the head of all confederate Generals: Robert E Lee!
Why are so many US Army posts named after confederate generals?
What the hell is up with THAT??!!
Why are federal facilities named after rebels?
In the tradition of naming Army posts after people who killed American soldiers, I suggest renaming Ft Benning to Ft Tojo, Ft Ord to Ft Rommel, Ft Lewis/ Mchord to Ft Ho Chi Minh/ Mao and Ft Leonard Wood to Ft Saddam
