Given my rotary wing bias, I am not going to be against naming a military fort that is the heart of Army helicopters after a stud helicopter pilot.


While I generally agree with SAS on the woke idiocy, I do have a modest proposal:
Don't rename Fort Lee, but if you must then consider perhaps another famous Lee.
Lighthorse Harry. A hero of the American Revolution.

(Yes, SASless, I know about Mother Rucker and delivered a Blackhawk or two there ...)
Side note: CW4 Novosel is from the same part of the country my dad is from, albeit seven years older than Dad
