I lived in the El Campo area for a few years and my old unit was at the Roy P. Benavidez National Guard armory. I saw MSG Benavidez several times but never met him. Oddly enough, after he died I found out we have a family connection to him (someone from my wife's family is married to one of his sons). My father first told me about him when I was in junior high, and I read two of his books. He was an inspirational man.
