In a controversial move prompted by a Trump executive order targeting Diversity, Equity, and Inclusion (DEI) initiatives, the Pentagon has removed webpages dedicated to notable figures such as the Iwo Jima flag-raisers and Navajo Code Talkers from its military websites. Critics are alarmed by the decision to erase significant historical contributions of Native Americans during WWII, as these pages have now become casualties of what many are calling an anti-DEI purge. The removal has sparked outrage among historians and the public, with opinions highlighting the absurdity of erasing these heroic narratives from military history.
