As calls increase to change the names of US military bases named for Confederate officers, there are fears that some beloved lesser-known installations – that are also named for former enemies of the United States – will have to be sanitized as well in the name of progress.
“I fear if this goes too far that AFB Ho Chi Minh will also lose its name – which would be a terrible shame.”
Similarly, US Army soldiers stationed at Fort Hitler expressed concern that the name they have come to know and love will be forsaken in the name of being woke.

And president* trump feels strongly about preserving the name of Fort Benedict Arnold, he tweeted. And he hated "besmirching the glory" by renaming John Wilkes Booth AFB. "He was the best pilot of his day", tweeted the president* at 3:00 o'clock this morning.
And JWB was a much better pilot than Lincoln, who was, let's face it, not a good pilot, no matter how you spin it-ha ha, spin it. Many people said Lincoln was too tall (and ugly!) to fit in the plane very well. Sad.
