Message to all those afro-american soldiers who fought and died in the vietnam war...

How is this for disrespect ?

trump of course did not serve in the military, getting a fake discharge for "bone spurs"

he does not seem to have any trouble walking

Frump's awfulness has gone beyond words..

"..The US defense department webpage celebrating an army general who served in the Vietnam war and was awarded the country’s highest military decoration has been removed and the letters “DEI” added to the site’s address.

On Saturday, US army Maj Gen Charles Calvin Rogers’s Medal of Honor webpage led to a “404” error message. The URL was also changed, with the word “medal” changed to “deimedal”.

Rogers, who was awarded the Medal of Honor by then president Richard Nixon in 1970, served in the Vietnam war, where he was wounded three times while leading the defense of a base.

According to the West Virginia military hall of fame, Rogers was the highest-ranking African American to receive the medal. After his death in 1990, Rogers’s remains were buried at the Arlington national cemetery in Washington DC, and in 1999 a bridge in Fayette county, where Rogers was born, was renamed the Charles C Rogers Bridge.

As of Sunday afternoon, a “404 – Page Not Found” message appeared on the defense department’s webpage for Rogers, along with the message: “The page you are looking for might have been moved, renamed, or may be temporarily unavailable.”

A screenshot posted by the writer Brandon Friedman on Bluesky on Saturday evening showed the Google preview of an entry of Rogers’s profile on the defense department’s website.

Dated 1 November 2021, the entry’s Google preview reads: “Medal of Honor Monday: Army Maj Gen. Charles Calvin Rogers.” Below it are the words: “Army Maj Gen Charles Calvin Rogers served through all of it. As a Black man, he worked for gender and race equality while in the service.”

“Google his name and the entry below comes up. When you click, you’ll see the page has been deleted and the URL changed to include ‘DEI medal,’” Friedman wrote.

to the wrong conclusion...

"...The Defense Department "has restored the Medal of Honor story about Army Maj. Gen. Charles Calvin Rogers," a spokesperson told NPR in an email, adding, "The story was removed during auto removal process."

The agency did not provide details about the removal process, or why the page's URL was briefly altered to add the letters "dei."

Last week, Arlington National Cemetery's website was found to have removed histories that highlighted Black, Hispanic and/or female veterans from its website.

The situation changed Monday morning: the page was restored, then seemingly taken down and restored again. Along the way, the "dei" URL was removed; it now redirects to the original page. The "dei" error page can be seen on a version preserved by the Internet Archive.


face facts : you are just a squalid racist unhappy with afro-amercians achieving and doing well

Excellent! This just proves that once again Trump admin is awesome. Instead of doubling down on MISTAKES, they FIX them! So good to have men of action working for us. I see per your post, you have noticed the same thing!
Strange to jump straight to the RACIST TROPE for this kinda thing (thirsty for it aren't ya?) Did you express the same level of grief when it was impossible to make white men with google AI art, not even George Washington? The cherry picking you folks do is quite interesting.
Cheers and have fun with that race hustling. If this doesn't work, maybe you can go pull a Jussie Smolett? but if you do, here's a clue, hire WHITE DUDES for the job. 2 black dudes dressing another black dude in a noose doesn't quite hit that racist trope hard enough.
 
so now it is a MISTAKE.

not some shameless hack

more racist ravings

people like you are incapable of admitting they are wrong, just like the great man.

Shame

When a MISTAKE is made, its usually because something WRONG was done.
Why do I always have to waste my time teaching libtarts the English language?
I guess they don't teach this in Social Justice Warrior class?
 
They are all removed because Trump is a racist asshole and caters to racist assholes.
He loves controversy because it keeps him generating headlines. Trump longs to be the bride at every wedding and the corpse at every funeral.

not just people of colour..the enola gay is bad news because..we we all know why

Even baseball great Jackie Robinson isn’t safe from getting labeled “DEI.”

The military history of Robinson — who broke the color barrier in Major League Baseball in 1947 after serving as a second lieutenant in the Army as a younger man — was wiped off a Department of Defense website as the Trump administration works to eliminate anything it considers “diversity, equity and inclusion.”

The Pentagon has removed thousands of pages documenting the history of people of color, LGBTQ people, women and others from marginalized backgrounds and their contributions to the U.S. military. Among the targets? The Tuskegee Airmen, the Enola Gay aircraft (because it contains the word “gay”) the Navajo Code Talkers, prominent female fighter pilots and the Marines at the Battle of Iwo Jima. (In response to public outcry, a number of the pages have been reinstated.)

When The Trump Administration Calls Jackie Robinson 'DEI,' Here's What It's Really Saying

Experts explain just why the removal of Jackie Robinson’s contributions is so troubling, even if some of the sites are back up now.

WASHINGTON — References to a World War II Medal of Honor recipient, the Enola Gay aircraft that dropped an atomic bomb on Japan and the first women to pass Marine infantry training are among the tens of thousands of photos and online posts marked for deletion as the Defense Department works to purge diversity, equity and inclusion content, according to a database obtained by The Associated Press.

The database, which was confirmed by U.S. officials and published by AP, includes more than 26,000 images that have been flagged for removal across every military branch. But the eventual total could be much higher.

One official, who spoke on condition of anonymity to provide details that have not been made public, said the purge could delete as many as 100,000 images or posts in total, when considering social media pages and other websites that are also being culled for DEI content. The official said it’s not clear if the database has been finalized.

Defense Secretary Pete Hegseth had given the military until Wednesday to remove content that highlights diversity efforts in its ranks following President Donald Trump’s executive order ending those programs across the federal government.

The vast majority of the Pentagon purge targets women and minorities, including notable milestones made in the military. And it also removes a large number of posts that mention various commemorative months — such as those for Black and Hispanic people and women.

War heroes and a 'gay' plane are among images flagged for removal in Pentagon’s DEI purge

Some photos seemed to be flagged for removal because their file included the word “gay,” including service members with that surname and the WWII aircraft Enola Gay.
