The Pentagon expects it to take about two years to restore the monument to its original site at the cemetery, an official told The Associated Press.
The sculpture honoring Confederate fighters and the separatist movement was removed from the miltiary cemetery in 2023, but will be restored soon.
Military officials expect to formally order the return to Confederate base names soon, but with different honorees.
Service officials said the reverted base names will now have links to Army heroes instead of Confederate leaders.
