Re: US Navy Band Audition

I do have to add that there are a few other bands outside of Washington DC that pay very high as well. Ft Meade has one and a fine player named Tom Puwalski was in there. He's an amazing player. He has one of the finest sounds around today. Maybe he will pop in and comment. Someone can write to him and ask to pop in. He was in for 20 years I think. More? Not sure.

When you retire you get one very nice pension. About 2/3rds of your salary at retirement. This could have changed by now. It's been 45 years since I left. You also still get medical and all sorts of military discounts. Yet you may still only be in your 40's when you leave! So much more to do after the military!
