So there are no commissioned officers in USMC bands. . . or are there??!!



So when I emailed the band director (who knew I played trombone) to ask when tickets were available for the Christmas Concert (yes, actually Christmas and not "Holiday") he said, "Anytime. Hope to see you there. Do you want to sit in? Please?" The regular bass trombone player was on the sound board so I got to play with the band!! How 'bout that! After 20 years from when I told the recruiter I wasn't joining the USMC band so I could go to college, I'm finally playing in the band!! One more concert to go (Saturday) and I will have done all four concerts. What a shot of motivation for an old guy like me!!!

The rest of the photos are here:

Ah, have to agree with WWII veteran, John Fallon on this one. I too dread getting emails and letters returned, knowing that we've lost yet another wonderful soul and soldier.
I almost always get a kick out of sending a note on to my great Seahorse friends, but not always.
just learned that we have lost another old Seahorse Paul Fogel and our numbers keep shrinking. May he rest in peace.
