The Department of Defense is undertaking a significant content removal initiative that targets over 100,000 pieces linked to diversity, equity, and inclusion. This includes a database of 26,000 flagged images and posts, prominently featuring the Enola Gay aircraft. The initiative appears to focus disproportionately on images with specific keywords, sparking concerns about historical narratives. Alongside the Enola Gay, images associated with the Tuskegee Airmen and prominent female pilots are also marked for deletion, raising alarms about the erasure of important figures in military history.
Several photos were seemingly flagged for removal only because their file included the word 'gay,' including the World War II aircraft, which dropped an atomic bomb on Hiroshima, Japan.
The Defense Department has created a database of more than 26,000 images and posts that have been marked for deletion across all branches of the military.
