Giving thanks to veterans on a national stage

A&M-SA graduate and director of Military Community Development Richard Delgado was selected to appear in Pepsi's Operation Halftime commercial, filmed partially on the USS Lexington to honor thousands of veterans. Richard was one of only six veterans chosen to pay homage to the military community in the commercial, which aired on Thanksgiving Day. A&M-San Antonio is very proud of Richard's commitment and dedication to our military community students and everything he does to honor their service.
