Becoming a United States Marine was a dream come true for me on December 24 1965. I volunteered for duty in Vietnam and served two tours. SEMPER FI BROTHERS. GOD BLESS AMERICA AND THE UNITED STATES MARINE CORPS. OOH RAH.

I graduated MCRD san Diego 28 Dec 65. OOOrah.
No one could compose a march like John Phillip Sousa.
I remember when I was in the Coast Guard marching band out of boot camp. They sent us all over the place to march in town parades and holidays. We flew around in a C-130 cargo plane and all it had for seats were nets. Those planes could stop on a dime. I saw them get into a lot of small town airports. Anyway, it was a thrill to march through the streets and be greeted by all these waving, clapping people who were all smiles. It was a great feeling. Very patriotic.

Only parade I "march" and got wave at was in 4th grade. The whole school paraded in our town.
Aren't we blessed to live in a country where the absolute finest men and women will don the uniform and stand up for the rest of us.GOD BLESS THE USMC,USN,ARMY,AIR FORCE,COAST GUARD AND AMERICA.
They can do this blindfolded and still come out perfectly correct.
They do our Country proud. I’m an Air Force Veteran, all veterans are brothers and sisters and I’m honored to see this video.
*once a band kid, always a band kid*
So proud to say my son is a US Marine!
This scene, taken in early winter, upon a football field, with the USMC Marching Band, is as American as you can get!
This video makes me so proud to be an American!

Het is nu 13 juni 2020! Ik zou me schamen om nu -onder President D. Trump- een Amerikaan te moeten zijn ! Wat een slechte Republikeinse pres!! Wat een Drol!! Met voorsprong de slechtste President OOIT•
People who leave bad comments dont remember that its because of our military we can voice our opinion. And many have given their lives.

Sousa knew how to write marches! After a tour of Europe, he was approaching New York, by boat, and the sight of the US inspired him to write "Stars and Stripes forever." A great rendition of this song, is on an old player piano. I had a neighbor who rebuilt them and he happened to have this song on a roll. It's amazing how a person can influence a performance by pumping the pedals, on a player piano! Good times!!
I could imagine them playing Stripes music from the movie
to all the undisciplined know it alls and flunkies the corp embodies the finest in leadership honor and strength; to all marines remember ONCE A MARINE ALWAYS a Marine until the day you die! You honor us with your presence..Thankyou

Wonderful band - known all over the world for its strength - representing the US with honor and respect !!
God bless the USMC. The few, the very proud.
Battle Cry of Freedom - 'And we'll fill the vacant ranks with a million freemen more' - Makes you proud to be an American!
I would just like to say that when I was in my passing out parade at HMS Raleigh in 1973, the RM band played Liberty Bell just as we turned into line to pass the flag pole & the Admiral. If any one is familiar with Monty Python, you will understand why we had trouble keeping a straight line
God Bless Our Soldier ‘s Living and Deceased and Those who Play Instrumentals like in this Band especially in Parades ..I Wish You All Luck in the Future..
This is why I love America!!! God watch over you all!
My Marine Corps indoctrination was at PISC in 1973. This is among the finest of the band ensembles. Great job with The Stars and Stripes. Ooh rah.
God bless America. God bless our USMC band... thank God for Maestro JP Sousa.
Always a thrill to hear a military band playing a John Philip Sousa March. Brings back a lot of memories from being in band in school. Great job Marines. Great precision.

Remember,John Phillip Sousa was a Marine!
I live in small town Iowa, and we are blessed to have a Marine band lead off our annual summer celebration. They came the first year, way back in 1976 for our Bicentennial celebration and they've been coming back ever since! They get to spend time with the townspeople & enjoy the party!! Some of them have never had the chance to visit the midwest & they go home with a different perspective. Always, always a class act, no matter which base they are from. God bless our military people. And God bless America! 🇺🇸

I believe the first song played upon taking the field is "The Battle Cry of Freedom" which originated during the Civil War. The first performing song is of course the Stars and Stripes.
Forgive me. We used to sing these songs in School.
Adoro esta musica, no me canso de escucharla. Es la cara de los USA. 😃😃
As always fantastically played.
My two brothers are former Marines. Semper Fi .
Terrific. Thank you!
Those piccolos get me every time!! I play the flute but have always wanted a piccolo...may have to go get one now that I am thinking about it! God bless you all, thank you for bringing some light into these dark days!

Like Ronald Reagan said some people go through life and wonder if they made a difference...Marines do not have to wonder. We spent our time in hell and we will be guarding the streets of heaven.
