While confederate monuments have been largely removed in Virginia, their futures remain far more uncertain across state lines in the Tar Heel State.

Fort Benning — originally named after a Confederate general, Henry Benning — was renamed as Fort Moore in 2023 as part of a broader effort to retitle bases with Confederate-era names.

The move reflects an ongoing effort by the Pentagon to overturn the Biden administration's 2023 decision to remove names that honored Confederate leaders, including for nine Army bases.
