A committee representative told the Laredo veterans committee on May 13, 2025, that a Veterans of Foreign Wars post in San Antonio will be renamed May 17 to honor Lance Corporal David Lee Espinosa and invited members to attend the ceremony.

"This young man was born when Afghanistan started, and he died the last day of Afghanistan when they were evacuated," the speaker said. The speaker described the ceremony as mixed with memorial events and invited anyone interested to contact the speaker for details.
