On Friday, the Pentagon and Congress took action to appoint new members to a newly formed commission whose main job consists of renaming Confederate-named military bases and property.
Earlier this month, Biden’s Defense Secretary Lloyd Austin removed Trump-appointed members from the panel. According to The Hill, Austin named four people to the commission, including “retired Adm. Michelle Howard, a former vice chief of naval operations and the first African American woman to command a U.S. Navy ship; former Marine Corps Commandant Gen. Bob Neller; retired Army Brig. Gen. Ty Seidule, professor emeritus of history at West Point; and Kori Schake, a former State and Defense department official who is now director of foreign and defense policy studies at the right-leaning American Enterprise Institute.”
