This appears to be due to an auto-removal process and will be resolved soon. According to Grok:
🔹”The Defense Department clarified that Hayes' page was taken down inadvertently by an "auto removal process" rather than a deliberate targeting of his story. On March 18, 2025, officials announced they were working to restore the content about Hayes, a Pima Indian and one of the iconic flag-raisers at Iwo Jima during World War II. While some related pages may still be in the process of reinstatement as of today, March 19, 2025, the commitment to restore his information has been publicly affirmed.”

▪️There is an article currently up on the VA website about Ira Hayes, “The Hero of Iwo Jima” so it’s either been resolved or was only a partial delete in the first place.

▪️It seems highly doubtful “Trump had him removed” because of DEI, much more likely it was a clumsy attempt by an algorithm to sift through millions of web pages and flag content that backfired.
It’s just so wild to see these movements see saw, it feels like just yesterday that conservatives were boycotting Disney and the left was gloating.
Just incredible. After posting a meme blaming Charlie Kirk for his own murder, they post another a few hours later applauding Democrats for their civility.
Also, if you look at the Occupy Democrats timeline, their posts “denouncing political violence” were variations on “no one should be shot…BUT here’s a quote from Kirk showing he’s a terrible person.” Or sometimes they’d leave the first part out altogether and just attack him. There are no posts denouncing violence without qualifiers trying to gin up their base.
