Are these UDC members the white supremacists who put up all those racist monuments BLM has warned us about? How about those Confederate veterans above them? Some mighty desperate and despicable folks if you ask me.

Two U.S. Ships Face Possible Name Change, SPLC Speaks and That Military Mess
These are media headlines.
June 13, 2020
** Senate bill to purge Confederate names from U.S. military could affect two Navy ships. (The guided missile cruiser USS Chancellorsville (CG-62) and oceanographic survey ship USNS Maury (T-AGS-66). The Chancellorsville is names after am 1863 Confederate victory and the Maury after Matthew Fontaine Maury who served in the Confederate Navy.)
** Ban Confederate flags and rename military bases. It's basic respect for our black troops.
** Confederate names would be stripped from Pentagon facilities under Senate measure. (Besides bases, street and building names at bases.)
** 'Watershed Moment': Will removal of Confederate monuments lead to lasting change in Alabama?

** Weekend Read: It's time for entire U.S. military to ban Confederate symbols. (There's a real big surprise. Imagine the good folks at the SPLC, Southern Poverty Law Center saying something like this?)
** A black man now heads the Air Force. It's progress, but military brass remains starkly white.
