[edit] Fort Pinocchio

Best I can tell, this was a one-off comment made by a columnist/retired general and posted on a single web site. No evidence that this nickname was picked up anywhere else, or even re-used by its creator, so it's utterly unnotable. Even a redirect to David Hackworth wouldn't be very useful, because this is from just one of his many, many columns. CDC (talk) 19:41, 17 Jun 2005 (UTC)

A simple Google search shows that it did spread, although very little. It made it to Wales, and was picked up in one French article. Is it worth turning it into a footnote in the Pentagon and White House (or the Bill Clinton) pages?

• Undecided, because have seen this term on atleast 10 websites, make sure you guys don't vote it away merely on the grounds of patriotism.
