Today, El Paso County Commissioners Court recognized Major General Taylor with a resolution sponsored by Precinct 1 CommissionerJackie Butler, honoring his leadership, service, and commitment to the Fort Bliss and El Paso community. 🇺🇸

MG Taylor captured the relationship between our military installation and our community perfectly when he said:

“Fort Bliss is El Paso, and El Paso is Fort Bliss.”

Those words reflect a partnership that goes far beyond geography. Fort Bliss service members, Veterans, families, and civilian employees are woven into the fabric of El Paso, and our community proudly stands alongside them.

Thank you, MG Taylor, for your leadership and for recognizing the special bond between Fort Bliss and El Paso County.
