Doesn't matter if you agree with this move or not - it's been directed and it's happening. What are your suggestions for renaming the following bases?

- Fort Bragg
- Fort Rucker
- Fort Benning
- Fort Gordon
- Fort Hood
- Fort Polk
- Fort A.P. Hill
- Fort Belvoir
- Fort Lee
- Fort Pickett

That won't work, because people will start calling Fort Politically Correct Crap II "Deuce", and even that will offensively offend the offended offendees LOL. Stop, I am can't.

Changing these names won't change history and the heroic behavior of their namesakes EVEN IF WE DON'T AGREE WITH THE CAUSE! Leave the damn names alone!

I would leave the names alone. These bases are part of our history.

First of all people should appreciate the remembrance and the honor in which they have added to our history . Why is it that people want to destroy our history so as to rewrite the wrongs all peoples have done all over the world. If you are going to rewrite American History you best get ready to rewrite world history, because if you don't change it you will never erase American history. The bottom line is learn from history or destroy your future. Leave well enough alone and learn from our past.

CPT Chris McGowan - Yes unfortunate. I'd think if I, a white male born in Mississippi who spent the first 16 years of his life in the south, can come to undusted then it seems like anyone should be able to understand.
