Plain-English Summary

This bill provides statutory authority for the designation of the military installation under the jurisdiction of the Department of the Army in Fayetteville, North Carolina, as Fort Bragg. The installation was originally designated as Fort Bragg for Confederate general Braxton Bragg, and was changed to Fort Liberty in 2023. On February 10, 2025, the Department of Defense issued a memorandum to rename it to Fort Bragg, in honor of Army PFC Roland Bragg, who served during World War II.
