RE: US Military Posts named for Confederate generals
Well, speaking as a $^&&%$#@ Yankee, I think this is much ado about nothing on the part of the columnist. I would hazard a guess that most people who serve on those bases would have no idea who Bragg or Gordon was anymore than someone who served at Fort Ord would know who Edward Ord was.
That said, I have a hard time getting too excited about the column. Best Rob Abraham Lincoln is the only man, dead or alive, with whom I could have spent five years without one hour of boredom. --Ida M. Tarbell
I want the respect of intelligent men, but I will choose for myself the intelligent. --Carl Sandburg
