FORT BLISS, Texas (KVIA) -- Ft. Bliss' top commander, Maj. Gen. Jim Isenhower, is leaving the post.

Ft. Bliss officials confirm to ABC-7 that Isenhower's last day will be July 11, 2024. The change of command ceremony will happen that day. Isenhower will hand over command to Maj. Gen. Curtis Taylor.
