Pure evil.

Memorial panels honoring Black American soldiers at a military cemetery in the Netherlands are gone. Removed on orders from the Trump administration.

Today is Veterans Day.

That’s all it took. A complaint from the Heritage Foundation, the same organization that wrote Project 2025. The American Battle Monuments Commission removed them earlier this summer. Quietly. Dutch officials only learned about it last weekend.

Let me tell you what was on them.

August 5, 1943. Camp Phillips, Kansas. The 960th Quartermaster Service Company activated. Two hundred sixty Black soldiers. All under the command of white officers, as Army policy dictated in WWII. They trained on bivouacs, security, and night patrols. Then they shipped out.

Late 1944, they arrived at what would become the Netherlands American Cemetery in Margraten. Twenty thousand American dead were waiting for them. No coffins. Bodies on tarps. Many had been there for days, sometimes weeks. Mutilated beyond recognition.

The ground was so waterlogged from freezing rain that machinery was useless. They dug graves by hand. In mud. In flooding. They tied corpses in mattress covers because there were no coffins. Bodies coming apart in their hands. The smell everywhere.

…

For decades, nobody acknowledged what the 960th did. Finally, in 2024, memorial panels were installed. Partly because of pushes from then-U.S. ambassador Shefali Razdan Duggal.

The Heritage Foundation saw those panels and filed a complaint. Trump’s administration removed them.

This is Project 2025 in operation. The people who wrote that blueprint are inside the administration, filing complaints about memorial plaques, deciding which soldiers we’re allowed to remember on Veterans Day.

They found a memorial to Black soldiers and classified it as a diversity program. Not the Jim Crow apartheid that forced those men to bury people who wouldn’t eat with them.

Heritage filed their complaint in March. Trump issued the order. The panels came down over the summer. No announcement, no notification to Dutch officials. The soldiers who dug the graves disappear from the story—what’s left is clean, comfortable, white.

It’s heritage all right.
