Renaming Military Bases .... SOLVED

Watching C-Span this morning the first segment was about renaming bases and removing memorials/statues. I was kind of impressed with the amount of Republican callers that were in agreement with Democratic callers about. And there were the die-hard racists and their ilk.

A few minutes before the segment ended the solution hit me on how to rename and yet keep everyone happy. Let corporations pay for sponsorship. They have done it with stadiums, arenas, etc., so I made a quick mock-up just to let people see what the possibilities could be.
I do not twitter but anyone here wanting to copy the link for the picture and tweeting about it, go right ahead. how about a hash tag
