The resolution commemorates the 250th anniversary of the U.S. Army, which was celebrated on June 14, 2025, in Houston, Texas. It highlights the historical significance of the Continental Army, established on June 14, 1775, by the Second Continental Congress to unify the 13 American colonies in their fight against Britain. The resolution notes the election of George Washington as the commander in chief and the enduring motto "This We'll Defend." It also outlines the evolution of the Army into its modern structure, which includes active-duty troops, the Army Reserve, and the Army National Guard, emphasizing the Army's critical role in the nation's development and defense over the past two and a half centuries.

In recognition of this milestone, the resolution expresses gratitude to the men and women who have served in the Army and acknowledges their vital contributions to safeguarding the nation's values and interests. The Texas House of Representatives resolves to officially commemorate this anniversary and directs that an official copy of the resolution be prepared for the U.S. Army's 5th Brigade as a gesture of respect and appreciation.
