Hi Eric, this one of the songs that BAC used in the corps during the days of the presentation of colors during 1960s&70s, this the arrangements by the marines is amazing and among the best edition

If ever I were to feel depressed I would only have to look at this and the pride restores all to Americans

Did you intend to entitle this as "Fort McHenry August 2018 USMC Battle Hymn of the Republic?🥺

[@ericgagnon1222]

No. Fort Henry was built by the British in Kingston, Ontario, Canada.

@@ericgagnon1222 Okay. It was my mistake then. I was not certain where the origin of this video is. I thought maybe it was taken at the Fort near Baltimore in MD.

Is this the USMC Drum and Bugle Corps or the USMC Band?

[@ericgagnon1222]

Drum & Bugle Corps. No woodwinds.

[@nicholasstabile4476]

@@ericgagnon1222 Yes, that was my perception. Last I read, the Band has 160 individuals, and the Drum and Bugle Corps has 85 individuals. Do you know whether those numbers still stand?

@@nicholasstabile4476 I don't know current strength. I do believe the group that travelled to Kingston was not the full unit.
