A. The Shakespearean quote “We band of brothers” applies to nothing more pragmatically than soldiers at war. Author Stephen Ambrose tells the true story of a relationship with meaning more than comradery or friendship in Band of Brothers for anybody and everybody to submerse themselves in, to possibly experience the relationship themselves. He also tells the story to relay the history of the most famous company in the U.S. Army, because without someone to tell the story, it would likely die with

“Drum majors, Jeremiah Wooten and Scott Smith, is your Corps ready?”, booms the announcer’s thunderous voice as our show starts.

I’m standing on the forty yard line of Ames Field in Michigan City, Indiana when I truly feel that I am performing my show in championship competition. Many veteran members told us rookies that the this competition will likely never be my best performance

This past semester I was chosen to be the Drum Major of the marching band. Drum Major is the highest student position possible, and it is the position that requires the most responsibility and commitment. This was my biggest challenge, and I took the opportunity to not only gain more leadership experience, but also to lead the marching band to another successful competition season.

taken to the gym to see the older kids playing instruments. There were so many different instruments being played, the sounds they were making with their instruments were awesome.

A Drum Major should represent Fayette as a role model and leader. I believe I hold the qualities needed for Drum Major through acts of leadership and responsibility in and out of school.

I’m a bass clarinet. Yes, a bass clarinet. Most people, even in band, forget what a bass clarinet is. That instrument in the back that’s neither classified subjectively as a wind nor a brass because of it’s low “duck” noises? Yup, that’s me! Although I’ve never had a rightful place in the band as a well known instrument, the family that I formed from having a close and small section is what I gained as a result.
