Ga vs S CarolinaWhen I first moved here I was kind of surprised that the same lake was called both Clark's Hill and Stom Thurmond Reservoir.
It's not like a lake that has two names because different countries (with different languages) border it. So why/how two different names?
Oh I get that, but it's kind of silly to me. I mean both Canada and America border the Great Lakes, but they don't have different names depending on which side of the lakes you are on. Thus I'm wondering why Clark's Hill/Lake Strom Thurmond does.Ga vs S Carolina
I hear you! Any soldier (even yours truly) can be considered a "bad guy" when you look at things from a different (opposing or neutral) perspective.Germans in WW2. I don't like them and I'm German. If you think every German soldier that fought for the Nazis were Nazis you're nuts. They were soldiers fighting for their country like Union and Confederate troops were doing in our war. Sidney Lanier, really? what a joke.
Couple of things interesting about the Lanier name change. It was not a Corps of Engineers initiative. Since COE lakes are under the Dept. of the Army they got caught up in the Dept. of Defense "Renaming Commission Report". Sidney Clopton Lanier was a private in the Confederate Army and did nothing noteworthy in the war. However, he was very well known as a southern scholar, writer, musician and poet. One of their removal criteria was the "Asset is designated as one that honors or commemorates the Confederacy or a person who served voluntarily with the Confederacy". GA representative Austin Scott, who was a committee member, should have stepped up for Lake Lanier but didn't. On a good note the COE has put an indefinite hold on any name change thanks to efforts by the Lanier community and local representatives. Here is a link to the renaming report. https://s3.documentcloud.org/documents/22418997/naming_commission_final_report_part_iii.pdf
