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

Ft. Bragg could best be renamed in honor of MG Robert T Fredrick. He Formed and commanded the First Special Service Force (The Devil’s Brigade). He earned every valor award except the MOH and eight Purple Hearts as a Colonel, Brigadier General and Major General. Promoted to BH at age 36 and MG at age 37. He was America’s last fighting General. He was an advisor to the forming of the Special Forces.

What a waste of time. How about changing all the Fort names to the same name.

Soldiers are not snowflakes, respect those that came before you and leave the names alone.

Some of them should be named after Native Americans. Many answered the call even before "citizenship."

I can not in good conscience give a serious reply to this childish and selfish nonsense. I considered making fun of this with unrealistic comedic responses but thought this situation was really too serious to make light of. I agree with LTC Kevin B. that they should be named after great people such as MOH recipients. Unfortunately, I am quite sure our suggestions will not be considered. I believe the current admin already has chosen people to come up with suggestions. And unfortunately they will not be the names of people who have done great things for this nation and have made the ultimate sacrifice to allow people such as myself to write this response. ( Fort Hood - Fort Kyle )

Leave them all alone! FFS, no one has the right to erase history. Period.
The military is rapidly losing its effectiveness with this systematic purge of patriotic Americans and anti-white propaganda programs like CRT. The top staff officers are all Obama-approved sycophants to the communist-democrats. The recent CF in Afghanistan is proof-positive of this. Now, they're going along with the known- and self-described communist BLM to remove our American heritage. Enough!
