In addition to Ft Bragg, there are also:

Fort Pickett
Fort AP Hill
Fort Lee (Yup, named after RE Lee)
Fort Benning
Fort Hood
Fort Gordon
Fort Polk
Fort Rucker
Camp Beauregard (Louisiana)

Hopefully this will be corrected.

I can kind of see the motivation at the time for naming these Army camps after Generals from both sides, since we were (supposedly) all one country again—but why prize nincompoops like Braxton Bragg and John Bell Hood, to name two?
