First Space Force base named after Confederate general for some reason
FORT NATHAN BEDFORD FORREST, Moon – Space Force Planners announced the first space force base would be named after a confederate general for “reasons,” a Pentagon press release announced Monday.
“In a tradition dating back to 1916, and maybe probably earlier, the Space Force will carry on the tradition of naming its bases after losing generals,” the unsigned release noted. “Starting with Fort Forrest, we expect all Space Force bases to be named after mediocre short-time martialists by 2038. “
The announcement was lauded at Fort Benning, Fort Bragg, Fort Gordon, Fort Lee, Fort Rucker, and Fort Polk. Fort Longstreet could not be reached for comment.
