Fort Lee, Virginia Gets Its Name Back

Fort Lee, Virginia, named after Confederate Genera Robert E. Lee, was briefly called Fort Gregg-Adams during the Biden administration but is now once again known as Fort Lee. The Lee in question was a member of the post War Between the States units formed of former slaves in 1866 for the express purpose of destroying the native Americans.

The honored individual, Pvt. Fitz Lee, received the Medal of Honor for heroism in action in Cuba during the Spanish-American War in 1898.

No record seems to have been kept of the number of native Americans killed defending their homes by Pvt. Lee and his "buffalo soldiers".
