Civil War II: Ghosts, Fort Bragg, Fort Donelson, Texas and Republicans
JUNE 25, 2020
** Confederate ghosts still haunt America. (Like, BOO!!)
** The City of Fort Bragg wrestles with its Confederate officer namesake. (California)
** Investigation concludes in vandalism to Confederate monument at Fort Donelson Battlefield. (Took place June 10. Case has been turned over to office of the U.S. Attorney. I am surprised as I thought the rioters had carte blanche to do whatever they wanted to Confederate statues. Some good news for a change.)
** Confederate monument removed in Denton (Texas)
** Republicans are ready to counterpunch over Confederate-named military bases.
** Army is taking limited steps to counter racial divisiveness.
** Holmes Column: History in the remaking.
** If the military renames Southern bases, whose names should replace the Confederate Generals? (Personally, right now, I'd say any names other than that of Blacks. That would be too much of a slap in the face. Maybe down the road name some of them for deserving black military people.)
