Summary
Army officials are exploring ways to rename Fort Liberty back to Fort Bragg without violating laws prohibiting Confederate names.
Fort Bragg, originally named after Confederate General Braxton Bragg, was changed in 2023 following a congressional mandate. Trump vowed to reverse the change, and Defense Secretary Pete Hegseth has fueled speculation.
One option under consideration is renaming it after another soldier named Bragg.
Costs for the initial renaming exceeded $6 million.

About Germany - it was divided in two parts, one received your proposed treatment, another didn’t (the baddies were in fact given a lot of important posts and weren’t really prosecuted, also till early 70s polls showed the opinion that National Socialism is a good ideology as pretty common). One has a lot of neo-Nazis and conservatives now, another doesn’t. The one that didn’t receive your treatment doesn’t. This shows that you can’t force people to think the way you want.
