H.R. No. 8 is a resolution commemorating the second anniversary of the renaming of Fort Hood to Fort Cavazos, which took place on May 9, 2025. The renaming honors U.S. Army General Richard Edward Cavazos, a distinguished Texan and the first Latino to achieve the rank of four-star general in the U.S. Army. Fort Cavazos, located between Killeen and Copperas Cove, serves as a significant military installation, housing the III Armored Corps Headquarters and the 1st Cavalry Division, and plays a vital role in training and deploying Army Reserve and National Guard soldiers for global operations.

The resolution highlights General Cavazos's remarkable military career, which spanned 33 years and included service in both the Korean and Vietnam Wars, where he received numerous awards for his bravery and leadership. The Texas House of Representatives expresses its best wishes for the continued success of Fort Cavazos and its personnel, recognizing the installation's importance in national defense and honoring the legacy of its namesake. An official copy of the resolution will be prepared for Fort Cavazos as a token of esteem from the Texas House.
