I have had a lot of discussions about this topic and I am frankly really surprised about what I hear. I like to rephase the discussion about this topic. First, I don't think we are rewriting history. We make history. We change with the times. If not, we might still have UCP uniforms.

I like to ask it this way, if there was a new base and you were only given two options what would you name it after? A Confederate General or a US Army Veteran? If they say a Confederate General I like to ask why they support the Confederacy and their Army? I can't speak about other but I support what the US stands for. I have read a few books and I like to think I know enough to understand why a separatist movement started and multiple states seceded.

If I had to choose between to two, I'd go for the SF dude. His story is one of badassery

My question is this. Why doesn't Master Sergeant Benavidez have a base named after him already?
