South Carolina Military Base to Be Renamed After Late Sen. Lindsey Graham

Comments

A U.S. military base in South Carolina is getting a new name to honor late Sen. Lindsey Graham’s legacy.

The Pentagon has confirmed that Joint Base Charleston will now be known as Joint Base Lindsey Graham.

White House Press Secretary Karoline Leavitt shared the news:

Air Force Secretary Troy Meink issued a memo on Monday ordering the base to start the process of formally changing the base’s name.

Sen. Graham was an Air Force veteran who served for 33 years.

After this, he spent decades advocating for Joint Base Charleston in the Senate.

Just months before his untimely death, Sen. Graham helped lock in $212 million for upgrades on the base.

The Post and Courier was the first to report on the name change:

In a letter dated July 27, Secretary of the Air Force Troy Meink ordered staff to begin work with Air Mobility Command and Joint Base Charleston leadership to take “all necessary and appropriate actions” to begin converting the name of the crucial East Coast air base to Joint Base Lindsey Graham.

The letter cited the late senator’s “decades of distinguished service to the United States Congress and the United States Air Force.”

“Senator Graham’s lifelong devotion to the military was shaped by his own military service and his public service in both the United States Senate and the United States House of Representatives,” Meink wrote. “His steadfast advocacy was instrumental in modernizing our military infrastructure and enhancing aviation security, ensuring that Joint Base Charleston remains as one of America’s premier military installations.”

Graham was a powerful advocate for the base, which was established from a number of adjoining North Charleston-based military installations as part of a larger reorganization of Defense Department facilities in 2010.

In the years since, Graham has helped direct hundreds of millions of dollars in federal funding to help support the missions there, and was closely associated with a contentious effort to recruit Boeing to move to the area to construct its 787 Dreamliner over unionized Washington state, where the company was based.

In May, Graham helped secure an additional $212 million in funding to enhance Coast Guard readiness at JBC, with the money going to improve the installation’s pier infrastructure and construct new medical and dental facilities on site.

“It is imperative this base has the necessary tools to protect South Carolina’s coastline and prevent deadly drugs, such as fentanyl, from reaching our shores,” Graham said at the time.

The decision to re-name the base after Sen. Lindsey Graham is proving quite controversial online.

Some folks think this is a great way to honor the late Senator, who spend his entire life supporting America’s military:

What a great tribute to Senator Lindsey Graham!

But, others are not too happy with the change:

Am I the only one who thinks that’s pathetic? It’s sad he’s gone but he also advocated for every war in my lifetime. Just saying. Cmon too far!

Why??? as a South Carolina who voted for Graham and Trump, this is ridiculous. The honor should go to someone who fought and died for our country.

I don’t gloat over anyone’s death, but Lindsey Graham did nothing honorable for the United States. If anything, he helped balloon the national debt and get American soldiers killed by pushing neocon ideology and endless stupid wars. Naming a base after him? For what exactly?…

What are your thoughts?

Do you think this is a good way to honor Sen. Lindsey Graham? Or, does it go too far?
