JOINT BASE SAN ANTONIO-FORT SAM HOUSTON, Texas –
The U.S. Army Medical Center of Excellence is inviting local families to host soldiers for Thanksgiving.
For many soldiers, this will be their first major holiday away from their homes and family. This event offers an opportunity for the community to host soldiers at their home for Thanksgiving Day.
Registration is now open and runs through Nov. 1, 2024. Families can register at https://medcoe.army.mil/mission-thanksgiving or search MEDCoE Mission Thanksgiving. Families will pick up and return soldiers at Joint Base San Antonio-Fort Sam Houston.
Mission Thanksgiving at JBSA-Fort Sam Houston began many years ago when local families and installation chaplains created a program allowing soldiers to take a break from training and experience Thanksgiving in a family setting. This annual event provides the community with the chance to welcome soldiers into their homes for Thanksgiving Day.
