So Def. Sec Hegseth changed the name of Ft Moore back to Ft Benning. As w/ Ft Bragg, they found another soldier with the same name to make it seem like they weren't just changing the name back to honor a Confederate.
But you should know who Ft Moore was named for. 🧵

Hegseth: "We're not done there. There are other bases that have been renamed that erodes that very same legacy. There's a reason I said Bragg and Benning when I walked into the Pentagon on day one, but it's not just Bragg and Benning."

So, uh, Lt. Gen. Hal Moore, for whom Fort Benning was renamed in 2023, also had a Distinguished Service Cross. And a Purple Heart. And three Bronze Stars for valor.
This is just a little trick to keep your Confederate sympathizers happy.

The Pentagon is renaming Fort Moore back to Fort Benning, but this time for a totally different Benning, not the Confederate. Turns out the Pentagon doesn't even have a photo of this Benning. @taskandpurpose.com found one. And a lot more about Benning. taskandpurpose.com/news/benning...
The Army didn't have a photo of the 'new' Benning, so we found this one
The Army couldn't find a picture of Fred Benning, who is now the namesake of Fort Benning. We found one in smalltown Nebraska.

Fort Benning is in Georgia and was originally named after Henry Benning, a Confederate general, until it was renamed in 2020 to Fort Moore in the wake of the George Floyd protests.
SECDEF Hegseth just announced Fort Moore is being renamed Fort Benning, this time after Corporal Fred G. Benning, "who was awarded the Distinguished Service Cross for his extraordinary heroism in action during World War I with the U.S. Army in France in 1918." www.defense.gov/News/Release...

Jabba the Hutt was operated by a total of five puppeteers, including one using a remote control to control the eyes. He's sat on a 'stage' to allow for more space for operators.
I'm also thinking that during filming, Jabba was probably filled with puppeteer farts.

Filmed entirely around Fort Benning, Georgia. Which I'm sure is very geographically similar to central Vietnam.

Henry Benning said “give me pestilence and famine” sooner than electing a Black person. Despite being committed to racial inequality, the Trump Administration recently has renamed a military base in Georgia in his honor.

the other highlight of my day was Sadie Benning.
Over four months, Benning input words into an image search then arranged the resulting pictures into dense digital collages, which they then painstakingly rendered as small, hand-painted compositions with glaze-like layers of watercolor.

I would love it if they renamed the bases again but this time spitefully. Fort Lee=Fort John Brown, Fort Benning=Fort Sherman etc.
