Arlington National Cemetery has initiated a significant revision of its online presence, removing references to the histories of Black, Hispanic, and women veterans. This action aligns with directives from President Trump aimed at eliminating elements of diversity, equity, and inclusion (DEI) from federal agencies. Reports indicate this has been termed a 'digital content refresh' by Pentagon officials. Prominent figures, including General Colin Powell, and influential groups such as the 8666 Postal Corps, are no longer highlighted on the website, even though their stories remain searchable. Thousands of photos representing diverse veterans are also slated for removal.
