Hegseth's proclamation says instead of being named after Confederate Gen. Braxton Bragg, the fort is being renamed after Pfc. Roland L. Bragg, a World War II soldier.

Secretary of Defense Pete Hegseth signed a memo Monday to rename Fort Liberty to Fort Bragg, after Pfc. Roland Bragg.

The military base had been renamed Fort Liberty as part of an effort to rechristen bases named for Confederate officers.

The army base was earlier named after Braxton Bragg, a Confederate general. The Pentagon said the name will now honor Roland L. Bragg, a soldier who was decorated for his service during World War II.
