The Arlington National Cemetery has released its websites and educational materials on the history of members of the Black and Women’s Service.
Some of the contents of unpublished from the venues were on veterans who received the most military recognition in the country, a medal for honor, according to Taskva and the purpose of military news.
The removal of the content is part of the greater effort of President Donald Trump to remove the practice of diversity, equality and inclusion (dei) in the army and in the entire Federal Government.
About 400,000 veterans were buried in the Army Cemetery, which was founded after the American Civil War in the house of General South, Robert E. Lee.
On the cemetery website, internal connections that directed users to websites with information about “notable graves” of dozens of blacks, Latin American and female veterans were missing on Friday.
The pages contained short biographies on veterans such as gene Colin L Powell, the first black president of the joint head of the headquarters, which is the highest rank in the army after the president.
They also told the life stories of members of Tuskegee aircraft, the first black military aircraft in the country.
Earlier this year, the Ministry of Defense had to re -establish materials for training on appreciated aircraft after national deviation due to removal of Trump’s commands.
Information about Hector Santa Anna, a pilot of World War II bombers and a career military leader, who was called the hero of war, were also demolished.
Website visitors may also have problems finding information, as connections to the main sections are missing. He no longer states pages for the history of African American, Latin American American history and the history of women.
The content still exists on some notable women buried there, including former Supreme Court justice Ruth Bader Ginsburg and 14 veterans from the unit recently presented in the film nominated for Oscar Six Triple Eight, but this is only a direct search.
Ever since he re-entered the White House, President Donald Trump has signed several executive orders to ban Dei within the Federal Government.
The cemetery spokesman said in a statement that he was working to restore connections and content and remained “dedicated to sharing stories of military service and sacrifice of the nation,” said the Washington Post.
He added that he wanted to ensure that the content was aligned with Trump’s commands, and also to the instructions of the Minister of Defense of Pete Hegsetha.
Representative Adam Smith, a top Democrat on the Home Armed Forces Committee, condemned the removal of content.
“The whole thing is deeply worrying,” Smith said in an interview with the New York Times.
“Even if you have concerns about the way Dei has been treated in several different places, I have never seen a problem in the army.”
In his second term, Trump has made dramatic changes in the military, including the cracking of the main general in the country, CQ Brown, a black man who supported the diversity in the armed forces.
Secretary of Hegsetth – former Fox News host – a military veteran – has committed to use all initiatives for diversity and accused Gen Brown of “waking up”.
2.03 million people serve in the US army on active duties or in reserves, and 30% are identified as part of a minority group such as a Black or Indian, and 18% as Latin American or Latino, according to the latest report of the Ministry of Defense. One fifth of those in the military are women.
