The Army is investigating a National Guard social media account posting that contained an image of a soldier wearing a patch appearing to depict Nazi symbolism.
I love the reveal further down that this is from “Fort Liberty” with the hyperlink still directing to the page for Fort Bragg lol
E) Also it’s very funny that if you follow the link to their page on Fort Bragg they start off with a little puff piece talking about the base’s “proud culture and rich history” and then has these articles recommended directly underneath:
Prosecutors Say a Senior Enlisted Leader at Fort Liberty Smuggled Meth, Put Strip Club on Travel Card
National Guardsman Arrested at Fort Liberty for Allegedly Trying to Arrange a Revenge Murder over Mother’s Death
Army Wraps $95 Million Project Renovating Moldy Fort Liberty Barracks, Demolishing Others
E2) for clarity, the photo was taken by troops stationed in Alabama, but when the reporter asked someone there about it they said it was “a 3rd group team patch taken out of context” 3rd group are the ones stationed at Bragg.
So the “out of context” is the fact that this guy from 20th group (sattioned in Alabama) is wearing the fascist iconography of 3rd Group from Fort Bragg in North Carolina. A base infamous for human trafficking, drug trafficking, murder, and rampant drug abuse/overdose.
Yeah it happened twoish years ago which I’m sure had absolutely nothing to do with Seth Harp’s reporting and was only about the fact it was named after a Confederate general and Jefferson Davis’ like #2 guy.
