Talk:United States Army Band

Untitled
Shouldn't the the Fife and Drum Corps be moved to their own article? Sturmvogel 66 (talk) 21:50, 15 September 2009 (UTC)

Combat Zone Performance
I don't understand something: the text says that 2002 was the first time the band has played in combat zone since 1954, yet there is a photo on the page that shows the band playing in Vietnam in 1970! I see an issue here ......

Create separate page for Army Chorus?
I noticed that the Herald Trumpets has its own article. Seems like the Chorus might deserve its own as well. It has been a party to numerous events of national significance, not the least of which are the final memorials and interments of Presidents Reagan, Ford, and GHW Bush. There are at least 8-10 articles that link to the existing United States Army Chorus redirect, and probably several others that would link to it if it existed. J.

Colonel Lamb’s ‘return’
In History, it is noted that ‘In April 2000, Colonel Gary F. Lamb returned to the United States Army Band’. I can find no prior reference to any involvement with the band by Colonel Lamb. I’m deleting the sentence as a non-sequitur Irish Melkite (talk) 02:51, 2 December 2023 (UTC)

Lineage and Name
Per the Lineage, it appears that the unit was titled as ‘The Army Band’ until 1948 when it was discontinued, about a month subsequent to the creation of another unit dubbed the ‘United States Army Band (active)’.

A year later, ‘The Army Band’ was reconstituted and consolidated with the ‘United States Army Band (active)’, the resulting unit being designated ‘The United States Army Band’!

Titling of the unit’s name throughout the piece should be consistent with the naming history indicated by the lineage. Additionally, as ‘The’ appears, both from the Lineage and the exemplar of the shoulder tab, to be an integral part of the unit name, should it not be part of the piece’s title?
