SAN ANTONIO – (April 22, 2024) – Sailors representing several naval commands, led by Rear Adm. Walter Brafford, commander, Naval Medical Forces Support Command, participated in the annual Pilgrimage to the Alamo during Fiesta San Antonio. Special guests joining the pilgrimage were crew members of the USS San Antonio (LPD 17) led by Capt. Shane Marchesi. The solemn procession of wreath bearers departed from the Vietnam Memorial at the Tobin Center and walked silently to the Alamo. The procession, a tradition since 1925, is comprised of historic, civic, patriotic, military and school groups who pay tribute to the Alamo heroes and the heritage of Texas. The local military commands, along with the 2024 military ambassadors, placed flowers at the Alamo during the pilgrimage. Joint Base San Antonio is proud to be part of the diverse and vibrant community of San Antonio also known as Military City USA.
