Prince George, not Prince George's, County. Gets confused with each other a lot. Feels like not only did they dig for a Lee to work this loophole, but they picked a Black Lee whose end was preventable and undignified to really put salt in the wounds that they yanked the names of two Black officers to re-brand Lee with a nod to a guy that surrendered. BG Gregg died in 2024 - made him the only living person honored with a base in his honor. He was admired in the community. LTC Adams-Earley had a whole ass movie about her service in WWII...
