The Army has finished renaming nine installations that previously honored confederate generals with the redesignation Friday of Fort Gordon in Georgia to Fort Eisenhower.
The Defense Department has until the end of the year to complete the recommendations of the congressionally mandated Naming Commission. The Naming Commission was tasked with identifying items in the U.S. military named after figures from the confederacy.
The commission’s final recommendations included renaming nine installations across the country named after Confederate generals.
It was weird that they ever had them to begin with.
I wonder if the Soviets ever had installations named after white military commanders.
