US MARINE DRUM AND BUGLE CORPS TO PERFORM FOR FREE ON THE PIER OF THE BATTLESHIP
FREE SHOW AND MEET-AND-GREET BY MARINES ON SUNDAY, JULY 25
DATE: Sunday, July 25 3 pm
DETAILS: “The Commandant’s Own” United States Marine Drum and Bugle Corps will hold a free concert on the Pier of the Battleship New Jersey on Sunday, June 25 at 3 pm. The show was made possible by the USS New Jersey Marine Corps Volunteer Detachment. A special meet-and-greet with the Marines after the 45-minute show will take place. Concessions will be available.
Music has always been part of the Marine Corps tradition. From the drum and fife of the American Revolution to The Marines’ Hymn and John Philip Sousa’s marches, Marine Corps musicians have brought emphasis to America’s most important moments. Muscians in “The Commandant’s Own” United States Marine Drum and Bugle Corps are selected through a rigorous audition process: they must prove they have what it takes to perform as a musician and a Marine. Now enjoy this renowned band as they perform with our nation’s most decorated battleship as the backdrop.
