1973 - 1975 Sounds Evening Formation, Texas A&M University

#AggieBand #FTAB #Aggies Students in 1973 stood on the shoulders of giants. Former students (our fathers, uncles, cousins, brothers and friends) went before us, serving in all branches - in World War 2, Korea and Vietnam. Some received the highest combat decoration, the Congressional Medal of Honor. Some received other military decorations such as the Purple Heart, Bronze Star and Silver Star. Many never returned home. In the Band Room, a large American flag was displayed, a gift from the family of a former Aggie Bandsman killed in action in Vietnam. Perhaps the flag is still displayed there. A few slides were found as well as 8mm film reels and an audio cassette tape in a box. The tape was labeled "Texas A&M evening formation 1975." The audio track of this clip is part of that tape and is not meant to be synchronized with any particular portion of this video, but to serve as an example of the sounds of the Corp or Cadets living and dining quarters as the Corp Bugler sounds Retreat (Evening Formation). The 8mm film clips in this video are originally silent. Texas A&M Drum & Bugle Corp (a small group of Aggie Bandsmen composed of brass and percussion) provided music for Retreat ceremony and march to chow at Duncan Dining Hall. Members of the Aggie Band held Air Force, Army, Navy and Marine Corp contracts, as junior and senior cadets. Enrollment in ROTC for Aggie Band underclassmen was mandatory. 1963 - The Agriculture and Mechanical College of Texas - renamed Texas A&M University - Members of the Corp in 1973 weren't far removed from "The Old Army" 1965 - Corp of Cadets enrollment became voluntary 1971 - Guion Hall - South end of MiIitary Walk was demolished - Link here https://tinyurl.com/yckz7sf3 Fortunately, Sbisa Hall at the North End of Military Walk was preserved 1974 - The Corp of Cadets, as students and former students knew it, was forever changed.

Mandatory enrollment in Corp was dropped about 1965 and enrollment in the Corp of Cadets gradually decreased over the years. Corp housing once occupied campus-wide was later occupied by civilian students. The very familiar call to attention at formation in front of Dorm 11 "Battalion - Attention" can be heard. The band was a Battalion formed in two companies and was still designated as "Company" and "Battery" from long standing tradition.
