Why would you name a US Army base after confederate generals in the first place. traitors by definition. How many faithful US soldiers died at his hand?
Change the name and I should not see that disgusting confederate battle flag on a US base either, not even on a bumper sticker!

I am sure that we could find a few MOH recipients to rename these bases after. Also we should remove all statues to anyone who has oppressed others.
