Richard Delgado Jr. ‘10

Spirit of the Jaguar

As Director of Military Affairs and Army ROTC at Texas A&M University-San Antonio since 2011, Richard helped to establish A&M-SA as not only the first purple heart university in the area but the first to establish a stand-alone building solely for military-connected students--an achievement that has since been duplicated all over the United States.  Richard has helped improve resources and programs for veterans and their families through volunteer participation on several state and national panels, committees, and boards.  Currently he is the chair for the City of San Antonio’s Committee on Veteran Affairs, the Director of Operations for the San Antonio Coalition for Veterans and Families (SACVF), and the Co-Chair of the SACVF Community Veteran Engagement Board to name just a few.
