H.R. No. 770 R E S O L U T I O N WHEREAS, The Warrior Transition Brigade at Fort Hood provides emotional and physical support to men and women who have bravely and selflessly served in defense of our nation and who have returned home in need of care; and WHEREAS, The U.S. Army established Warrior Transition Units to support wounded soldiers who require at least six months of rehabilitative care and complex medical management; under the command of Colonel John Kolessar, the Fort Hood Warrior Transition Brigade is the U.S. Army's largest unit; first activated as a battalion in 2007, to date it has served more than 2,000 injured and ill soldiers; and WHEREAS, One of those who owes much to the brigade is Sergeant Major Danny Foley, a 23-year military veteran whose assignments include deployments to Kosovo, Bosnia, and the Middle East; Sergeant Major Foley was diagnosed with liver disease while serving in Iraq, and after undergoing extensive treatment at Brooke Army Medical Center at Fort Sam Houston, he transferred to the Warrior Transition Brigade at Fort Hood; and WHEREAS, Throughout his recovery, Sergeant Major Foley has been fortunate to have the skilled assistance of three members of the brigade who have played a vital role in helping him heal: Sergeant First Class David J. Renteria, Staff Sergeant Guadalupe Reyes, and Ms. Isabel Tilzey; and WHEREAS, The men and women of the U.S. military perform a service that is essential to the safety and security of this nation, and when they suffer serious injury or illness, those who provide their medical and rehabilitative care themselves render a service of immeasurable value--to the warrior, to the warrior's family, and to the country at large; now, therefore, be it RESOLVED, That the House of Representatives of the 83rd Texas Legislature hereby honor Sergeant First Class David J. Renteria, Staff Sergeant Guadalupe Reyes, and Ms. Isabel Tilzey for their exemplary professionalism in treating Sergeant Major Danny Foley and extend to them profound gratitude on behalf of all Texans; and, be it further RESOLVED, That official copies of this resolution be prepared for Sergeant First Class Renteria, Staff Sergeant Reyes, Ms. Tilzey, and Sergeant Major Foley as an expression of high regard by the Texas House of Representatives.
