TDVA’s Support for Memorial Service Detachment Fort Sam Houston Texas Cemetery

TDVA is currently providing Wi-Fi service to the Memorial Service Detachment (MSD) at Fort Sam Houston Cemetery. It has been an honor for TDVA to support these highly dedicated men and women, who play a crucial role in offering honors for our fallen military servicemen and servicewomen. Their commitment and service in honoring those who have served our country are deeply respected.

TDVA began this mission in 2012, starting with the donation of Wi-Fi service to the Audie Murphy Veterans Hospital in San Antonio, TX. The high-speed network was specifically made available for the Spinal Cord Injury Unit and strategically placed in various areas including inpatient and outpatient zones, the lobby, physical therapy, occupational therapy, recreational therapy, and the main recreational area. This ensured that the patients and staff had access to reliable internet service throughout the facility.

This service was made possible due to budget restrictions at the VA Hospital. TDVA collaborated with Director Marie Walden at the time, enabling the installation of the system. TDVA provided funding for the Wi-Fi service from 2012 to 2020. In 2020, the VA received the necessary budget and installed its own network, completing the mission independently.
