[edit] Base Realignment and Closure

According to KVIA ABC-7 News (El Paso, TX), Fort Bliss is slated to gain just over 11,000 troops if the proposed Base Realignment and Closure model is approved by President George W. Bush. Fort Bliss would lose its Air Defense Artillary and the ADA School, which would be moved to Fort Sill, Oklahoma. TomStar81 05:13, 14 May 2005 (UTC)

[edit] Free world?

Is "free world" in this context equal to "United States", or does it have a more symbolic meaning? — JIP | Talk 05:45, 1 August 2005 (UTC)

It actually seems a bit biased to me, but I don't know the exacts of the statement.--FDIS 08:04, 19 December 2005 (UTC)

I think the article is revisionist/rightwing-perspective! Many sources say that reasons for the comanche, kiowa and southern cheyenne resistance was starvation on the reservation. Many sources mention high corruption of indian agencies in that time. Many indians got to few food and often, its quality wasn´t good too. The bad conditions on the reservation were also a reason for the escape of northern cheyenne led by Dull Nife and Lone Star in 1878. They jsut wanted to return to their home in the northern plains, but got persecuted brutally by the US-Armee. Steve Ackermann 15/8/07

[edit] This page is highly biased

This page is highly biased the only three sources are government sources. The article refers to American Indians (Native Americans) and Indians. I do not believe that people from India waged war on Fort Sill. The U.S. government is also not known for admitting mistakes in fact many history textbooks in public schools are still using incorrect historical data for the conquest against the American Indian. —Preceding unsigned comment added by Verbicheck (talk • contribs) 19:20, 23 September 2007 (UTC)
