The father of the Airborne is William Carey Lee.I first heard the notion of this by either John Plaster or John Meyer (MACV-SOG), can't remember which, on a podcast when this first erupted a few years ago. He talked about the community being small and clique-ish, a tribe, that identified "Bragg" as the home of that tribe.
"Liberty" is just fucking gay, so stupid. With the volume of MoH guys who went through Bragg, much less the rest of the certifiable studs, they could have picked a better name. I am not sure, however, they would not have the same issue as they are having now with the frustration over changing the name to begin with.
I get what you are saying, but because it is not meaningful to you doesn't mean it's not meaningful to someone else.
