On March 11, 2018, the Marine Band presented a Living History program titled Marine Corps Women’s Reserve Band Tribute. The program told the story of the talented and adventurous women who served our country in a most unique and unprecedented manner. Author of the book Bands of Sisters: U.S. Women’s Military Bands During World War II, Dr. Jill Sullivan served as a guide through the personal accounts of those very women who blazed a trail for many to follow. The Marine Corps Women’s Reserve Band of Camp Lejeune was established under the watch of “The President’s Own” to support bond drives and was active during World War II from 1943-45. In 1944, the ensemble even sat in for one of the Marine Band’s popular “Dream Hour” broadcasts, a program that will be reenacted in its entirety as part of this concert. The performance took place in Schlesinger Concert Hall at Northern Virginia Community College in Alexandria, Va. Conducted by Major Michelle A. Rakers.

Thank you, as an immigrant, most first generation, naturalized, Americans,are by definition, escapees from other places on this planet. So yes, the national anthem brings tears to my eyes also. This country is worth fighting for, to preserve it for others also. May God bless America, but first, America, bless God!

Thank you for the appreciation. Admittedly, you were listening to the finest band in the USA, they know how to properly play the Star-Spangled Banner. It’s interesting how some songs are shared with the UK, but different words and titles. Even our National Anthem was originally a British song, with the name and words changed.

Pierre Girard well, I want to thank you for listening. It gives me a good feeling young people listen, try to understand and more importantly - at least to me - think over what they hear, see and read. Remember not all people who look, talk, worship, live and vote differently are bad, evil or corrupt. I believe someone once said judge someone by what they do not what is said.

Beautifully done. I remember the United States Marine Band performed at my High School in the late 70's. It was at Clovis West High School gym. From Fresno, Ca.. They played for the students during the day, letting the best of our musicians join in. (I was far from the best so I watched). They were so fantastic. They later played in the evening as we'll. I was proud of these Marines then and today's Marines. Thank you for the music and your service
