We salute you, General Braxton Bragg. You served our nation well. Patriotic Americans will never forget you.

---The renaming of Fort Bragg honors all U.S. soldiers who have trained to fight and win U.S. wars, Hegseth wrote in his memo, "and is in keeping with the installation's esteemed and storied history."---

Except it is not named for Braxton Bragg any longer. You should read more closely.

From your link:
Hegseth sidestepped Congress' provision banning Confederate names by officially renaming Fort Bragg after Private First Class Roland Bragg, who "served with great distinction during World War II," according the memo ordering the name change.
