You don't know who your real great grandfather is or was

I sure do, mongrel.

Yes of course, stories you were told to make you feel better, what next? related to an Indian chief

Fort Lee had slavery?

Gen. Lee was an America General of the highest regard prior to the civil war. Lincoln BEGGED Lee to lead the Union Army.

But you're not an American, you're Al Qaeda and have no idea what American history is.

And Lee insisted that no statues or reminders be made of the confederates. https://www.pbs.org/newshour/nation/robert-e-lee-opposed-confederate-monuments

Fort Lee, an Army base in Virginia named after a Confederate general, was renamed on Thursday as Fort Gregg-Adams to honor Lt. Gen. Arthur Gregg and Lt. Col. Charity Adams, two Black officers who served in the U.S. Army.

At 94 years old, Gregg is the only living person in the Army’s history to have a base named after him, according to the U.S. Army. Gregg gave more than three decades of his life to the military and became a three-star general during his service.

The base will be jointly named for Adams, who was the first Black officer in the Women’s Army Auxiliary Corps (later the Women’s Army Corps).

How many slaves did Lee's fellow Virginian George Washington have?

Of course, Washington didn't rebel against the United States, he rebelled against the British Empire.

All the slaves in the British Empire were emancipated in the 1830s. Then Lee wouldn't have had any.

In his will, Washington freed his slaves. He got the message.
