This year's muster is in the great state of Texas, near the site of the pivotal event in the Texas Revolution – the Alamo! It is fitting that we gather there, as sacrifice echoes across the years, from the courtyards of the Alamo to the halls of Brooke Army Medical Center where the cost of freedom is visible every day.
With our HQ located at the Crowne Plaza Riverwalk, a major theme of this year’s Muster will be to honor our wounded Rangers recovering in San Antonio. We will identify and include these Rangers from Brooke Army Medical Center (BAMC) in as many Muster events as possible – those events include:
Banquet Guest Speaker
BG Joseph Caravalho, Jr., Commanding General, Brooke Army Medical Center and the Southern Regional Medical Command (Provisional), Fort Sam Houston, Texas.

The banquet is Saturday September 18, 2010 at 6:00pm immediately following the President’s reception that begins at 5:00pm.
Special Attendees
Ranger Mike Schlitz: Mike will share his story at our general membership meeting on Saturday September 18.
Ranger Tim Kennedy (Professional MMA fighter): Accompany Tim to Brooke Army Medical Center the afternoon of Friday September 17 to visit wounded Rangers, followed by the welcome mixer at the Crowne Plaza Riverwalk hotel.
