Скачать или смотреть Fort Bliss: A Historical Landmark of Compassion and Defense 🏰💫

The rich history of Fort Bliss, a significant military post with a legacy of compassion and defense. Established in February 1848 as the first United States military post in El Paso, it was initially scattered across
various sites until the strategic location of Harts Mill
was chosen in 1878. Named after Colonel William
Wallace as Bliss in 1854, the fort played a crucial role
in defending against Indian raids and maintaining
American authority in the region acquired from Mexico.
Luz Corral's act of generosity, offering over $1,000 to
provide blankets and pillows for Mexican revolutionary
refugees, exemplifies the fort's humanitarian efforts.
Despite challenges such as construction delays and
relocation in 1893, Fort Bliss remains an enduring
symbol of resilience and service. 🛡️🤝 #FortBliss
