Pics of WWII Bomber Flagged For Removal Under Pete Hegseth’s ‘DEI’ Purge — Because ‘Gay’ Is in Its Name
Defense Secretary Pete Hegseth’s Pentagon’s DEI purge is wiping out more than just diversity initiatives — it’s reportedly erasing history, as images of Black soldiers, pioneering female service members, and even photos of World War II Hiroshima bomber Enola Gay, have been flagged for deletion.
The database of flagged content, which was obtained by the Associated Press and confirmed by the U.S. government, shows more than 26,000 images already marked for removal across military branches, though one official estimates the real total could exceed 100,000 when factoring in social media and websites.
Hegseth ordered the sweeping purge, giving the military until Wednesday to remove any content that highlights diversity initiatives.
Among the targeted materials: photos of the Tuskegee Airmen, the nation’s first Black military pilots; an all-female C-17 crew during Women’s History Month; and images of Medal of Honor recipient Pfc. Harold Gonsalves. Even a routine Army Corps of Engineers project was flagged — apparently because an engineer in the photo had the last name “Gay.”
