I heard a recent news story that there are 14 such posts. What are they? And are there 14, or more, or fewer?

Bragg, and Benning, and Hood are three of them.

These are the 10 usually mentioned.

Fort Lee  
Fort Hood  
Fort Benning  
Fort Gordon  
Fort Bragg  
Fort Polk  
Fort Pickett  
Fort A.P. Hill  
Fort Rucker  
Camp Beauregard

Fort Polk is named after General Leonidas Polk, not his second cousin President James Polk.

I haven’t seen reference to another four.

It could be the 14 includes other things besides bases, for example:

It was a news story on TV. It named a few, and it said there were 14 of them.

Regarding _Chancellorsville_, there have been other U.S. Navy ships named after lost battles, including _Bataan_ and _Corregidor_. I doubt that in either of the latter two cases there were portraits of Admiral Isoroku Yamamoto displayed on board ship.

It was either CNN or Fox. I think it was on Fox, but I’m not certain because I often switch back and forth between the two. IIRC, it was Fox.

There’s Lee Barracks at West Point. Not a base but it’s an Army installation officially named after a Confederate.

There was also a Lee Barracks at an American Army base in Germany. But that was named after a WWII officer not the Confederate General. And it’s now been deactivated. And I joked about Fort Jackson in another post but somebody might seriously think that was named after Stonewall Jackson rather than Andrew Jackson.

So sloppy research could bring us up to thirteen.

George Pickett contributed greatly to Federal morale at Gettysburg.

If we include the street named after Robert E. Lee in Fort Hamilton, that gives us fourteen. 🙂

\*Lee was stationed there as a lieutenant before the Civil War.

There are actually two streets named after Confederate generals on Ft. Hamilton Army Base, General Lee Avenue and Stonewall Jackson Drive. [NY mayor Bill de Blasio is asking that they be changed.](https://www.nytimes.com/2020/06/11/nyregion/general-lee-avenue-fort-hamilton-brooklyn.html)

But if we’re counting streets I think it’s very likely there are other streets named for Confederate officers on other US bases, and not just in the South.

Some things named Lee could be named after General Charles Lee who Fort Lee, New Jersey is named after. We could just scrape the Robert E. off like it was a dog turd on a shoe.

Hell, in most cases the scraping would be unnecessary. It’s usually just the family name that’s used in the official name, and you only see the full name of the person in the dedication document and the “About Us” page or its equivalent. So the cost would be to explicitly add the first names.

Canadian, here, so I may not understand the nuances of the situation, but why are there US Army bases named after men who rebelled against the US?

**Moderating**

That question is a political one, and is best handled in another forum. Here are some active threads that discuss the reasons. Please take questions and discussion there.

Here are the ten bases with maps and some links. I like to visualize where the bases are located within the state.

Interestingly, Rucker lived long enough to see some of these bases named for his fellow CSA officers. Rucker died in 1924, a few years after the bases for Beauregard, Benning, Bragg, and Lee were established.
