No Confederate symbols on our military bases: Add your name today if you agree
Add your name to our petition asking the Army, Navy and Air Force to join the Marines in banning all Confederate flags and materials, and to rename 10 Army bases named after Confederate generals.
Last month the commandant of the Marine Corps, General David Berger, ordered a ban on all Confederate flags and materials on Marine bases.
Now, VoteVets is launching a petition asking the secretaries of the Army, Navy, and Air Force to join the Marines in banning Confederate symbols and requesting the Army rename 10 bases that bear the name of Confederate generals.
This isn't about history — it's about keeping symbols of hate out of our nation's military. Soldiers of the Confederacy have a place in books, museums, and other educational centers that can properly teach — not honor — what they fought a war against the United States of America for.
If you're with us, we need your signature on this petition today. Our military should not honor the Confederacy or those who decided to take up arms against the United States to defend slavery. Sign if you agree.
General Berger and the Marines are doing the right thing. It's time for the other branches of our military to follow their example.
These symbols have become rallying cries for hate, violence, and white supremacy. As the largest group representing veterans and military families, we have a unique voice to lend on this topic — so let's send a message loud and clear.
