    Pete Hegseth Banned Images of ‘Enola Gay’ Plane in DEI Crackdown

    In Defense Secretary Pete Hegseth’s quest to nix all diversity, equity, and
    inclusion (DEI) content, some photos on the Pentagon’s website and online
    posts appear to be marked for deletion just because they include the word
    “gay”—regardless of what the context is.

    One such case, the Associated Press reported, is a photograph of the Enola
    Gay, the B-29 bomber that dropped an atomic bomb on Hiroshima, Japan, in
    August 1945. In the picture, pilot Col. Paul Tibbets Jr. poses in front of
    the plane, which was named after his mother, Enola Gay Tibbets.

    Another photo that seems to have been mistakenly flagged is the headshot of
    Marine Corps Sgt. Maj. A.C. Gay. Other such photos show Army Corps of
    Engineer workers, one of whom also has the last name Gay.
