- Fort Bragg, one of the largest military installations in the world, has been redesignated as Fort Liberty, as part of a broader effort to rename military bases that had been named after Confederate soldiers.
- Fort Liberty is the only facility named after a value, rather than a notable person, and several streets on the base will be renamed after service members.
- The cost to rename Fort Bragg is estimated to be around $8 million, and the renaming process is ongoing for other military installations.
