I have been a member of the US Military Academy Band at West Point for the past 21 years. The US Army is the country's largest employer of musicians, and certainly the largest employer of clarinetists. My section employs 11 musicians, and below are the pay and benefits as listed on our website (www.usma.edu/band). These figures are typical of any military special band.

- Initial rank of Staff Sergeant (E-6), annual salary of $45,569 without dependents to $51,224 with dependents

- Full Military Benefits (medical, dental, retirement plan)

-30 Days Paid Vacation Yearly

- College Loan Repayment Plan up to $65,000 and tuition assistance

At the age of 43, my pay, including tax-free housing and food allowances and benefits is approaching $100,000 per year, and I am already qualified for a retirement pension.

If you have any other questions regarding military music employment, feel free to ask.
