5TH REUNION - Sept 13-17, 1979, SAN ANTONIO, TX

(source texasescapes.com)

Named after the city of San Antonio, the St. Anthony hotel, first built in 1909,  is one of the greatest hotels in San Antonio history

Judy Garland, Mickey Rooney, Lucille Ball, Fred Astaire, Betty Hutton, and Greer Garson. Lyndon Johnson, John Wayne, Gregory Peck, and Rock Hudson are all listed as guests for accommodations and/or dining.

Positioned near the famed Riverwalk it makes a perfect setting for events and certainly this was a great place to hold a reunion for the 508th!


Postcard
boasts "San Antonio's premier hotel --- in the heart of downtown, only steps from the River Walk and near the city's major attractions and historic landmarks.  Superb restaurants and lounges, excellent meeting facilities.
