USAFSS IN MISAWA PROJECT NATIONAL REUNION June 5th to 8th 2008 saw a group of about 140 men and women who served at Misawa, Japan as part of USAFSS/ESC sometime between 1952 and 1980 meeting downtown San Antonio for a good ol' "family reunion". Many of these folks are also members of the FTVA.Â During their reunion, most visited the Riverwalk, some attended a parade and graduation ceremony at Lackland AFB and/or a tour of the San Antonio Missions. Friday's "Exotic Shirt" contest was topped off by a larger-than-life Raffle.Â On Saturday, the Reunion concluded with a sumptuous banquet at the El Tropicano Holiday Inn Riverwalk topped off by the guest speaker, Maj Gen Craig Koziol AFISR Agency Commander.
