Half the units in Europe would be named for “heroes” that are war-criminals in another EU state’s histories if:
anyone were alive to remember
naming military units for people were more of a thing across the generations.
I’m half with Zelensky on this one and half, let’s see if they even survive the current conflict before quibbling with allies.
Passing resolutions? I could see it if the unit took-up a logo like “for Volyn!!”, but the fact is the same units that are heroes or villians or complicit in one battle or theater have played different roles in others.
I would say all I see from across the pond is the kind of wypypo shit that makes me glad the US is a melting-pot with actual racial tensions we realize we need to work on, but considering our issues with statues of fucking Confederate statues and looking at who is in office, I’mma just sit down now.
