Very interesting! In the early 1980's when I was in the ONLY band not required to do Basic Training was the DC, Marine Band. I was in the Air Force. I actually liked Basic Training, no the Air Force Basic Training was very easy, compared to the Marines and Army. I heard the Navy was on par to the Air Force. We had to run about 2 miles or 1 1/2 miles a day and very little marching. There were a lot of inside school types of studies.
So are the all of these 4 top bands now exempt from Basic Training? I have no idea. I'm sure people know
When I was in Basic no one had on strips, we were all equals just starting out, however I did get paid at the E5 level. That was very nice compared to E1. This tool place in San Antonio, Texas.
I'm glad there were some changes 10 years or so ago, thanks Paul for that info.
