I've never seen this uniform before. At first, I thought it was a Marine uniform, but the awards, attachments, and rank show that it is a Army uniform. Any insight? PFC (Join to see) SFC Joe S.

Looks like a ceremonial band uniform.

Sgt Neil Foster - If we don't keep revising or deleting history, how will we ever justify repeating it? You hit the nail square on the head.

SFC Howard Holmes - The entire purpose of naming southern bases after Confederate Officers was because ALL of these bases were established AFTER the Civil War ended, and the US Government was trying to emphasize that we are ALL Americans now, and the new bases were not an attempt to 'occupy' the South.

So-called "Historians of the extreme left can not accept this, and chose to REWRITE history to meet their narrative!

I believe the renaming was more to stay in line with the Equity and Inclusion movement, which is as unAmerican as it can be. I do agree with the Left's rewriting of History, but do you think that by changing the names of these bases somewhat erases History. Who will ever look into who Gen. Harry Benning was? Or who Braxton Bragg, a West Point Graduate was? Making it go away doesn't change the fact that it existed, but it leaves it more likely to be repeated. They already made a movie "Civil War", but it wasn't about the 1860s, it's about the possibility of a more recent one.

SFC Howard Holmes - The revisionists are claiming that the Confederate Officers are NOT Americans, even though the US government PARDONED them and tried to assure the people of the South that we are ALL Americans. The naming of military bases was part of that effort!

Sgt Neil Foster - The West Point Band is regular Army NOT Cadets, the Cadet uniform has NOT changed.

SMSgt Lawrence McCarter - That was not what my comment was about. Someone posted about the newly renamed bases in the South, and I commented on the Revisionist Historians trying to transform history, and the military to conform to their leftist narrative
