Looks like the policy changed today.
It appears that history can be changed or at least hidden merely because it is deemed offensive by someone. I remember my Polish mother telling a joke about why some Polish people wanted to be buried face down so that people that tell dumb Polish joke can kis their posterior. Frankly, I think she thought it was humorous but I suppose there are those that would take offense.
Of course, as a Vietnam veteran I suppose I've been a bit desensitized from the treatment received when I came home. I guess it's a good thing that I didn't run off to Canada to dodge the draft so that people today still have the right to be offended. Of course, if we get to the point that we hide and deny history, successive generations may think that it never happened.
