Well how else are you supposed to have your fanfare when you hit the ground? It ain’t gonna fan itself!
Awesome! I didn’t expect that!
Does this mean we can say *MERRY CHRISTMAS* now?
LOL ..... I’d of used em had the situation worsened. And yes, every plane that landed for the few hours we were on the ramp, they played as the troops unloaded.
Clickbait headline. 15 yard penalty and 10 minutes of scorn.

Go to the 3:22 mark to see the cutest.
Dad would have whipped us seven ways to Sunday if we brought one of his heifers into the house.
We couldn't often play with them in the feedlot or the pasture because the momma cow would have discouraged it.
My wife had an appointment to interview with the USAF Band of the SE just before we met. She cancelled it when we got engaged. A year later I enlisted in the USAF for six years.
We went on a blind date on May 3 and we were married on June 28. Yes, I know that's only eight weeks but we are coming up on 43 years together.
My wife was a grade behind me, and I remembered her face on the playground in elementary school, but my family moved away at the end of the fifth grade. That is not exactly a blind date but I never really knew her before and it had been nine years since I had seen her which was just enough time for her to become a heart stopping beauty. I told my Dad when I got back home from our date that I was going to marry her.
That all comes flooding back whenever I hear the Air Force Band play. What a blessing, Bach's "Jesu, Joy of Man's Desiring" and then "Joy to the World!" I cannot see they keys now. Thank Heaven for touch typing.
Wonderful! Thanks for posting.
I love the “Flash Mob” US Military bands performances but have wondered how the videos have outstanding audio mixes?
I’ve always begrudged their rank, which was given.
What is the music before “Joy to the World”?
They did this by the Wright brothers plane and the Apollo 11 and Mercury? capsule.
The look of the people hearing great music must have been another JOY for them.
#10 Thanks. I found the title: Jesu, Joy of Man’s Desiring
