Mission

The mission of the San Antonio Citadel Club, The Alamo Battalion, is to foster esprit de corps among graduates, cadets, parents, and friends of The Citadel, The Military College of South Carolina. The Alamo Battalion works in conjunction with the Citadel Alumni Association to support alumni, cadets, and parents in the local San Antonio area.

We hold different meetings and social events on a regular basis for members and their families. The Alamo Battalion supports alumni, cadets, parents, and prospective cadets. Alumni, cadets, and parents are always welcome to meetings and events.
