Army Bands provide music throughout the spectrum of military operations to instill in our Soldiers the will to fight and win, foster the support of our citizens, and promote our national interests at home and abroad.
Mission: The U.S. Army School of Music (USASOM) trains and educates Army Musicians; designs, develops and implements training; integrates unit capabilities, concepts and doctrine in order to build Army bands that are versatile and adaptable in Unified Land Operations.

Last week, the U.S. Army awarded the very first Expert Soldier Badge (ESB), a proficiency badge which recognizes the lethality of Soldiers who serve outside the Infantry.
Among the 11 recipients of the ESB was our very own Staff Sergeant Bradley A. Sherman, a trumpet player currently serving with the MCoE Band at #FortBenning.
Help us congratulate Staff Sgt. Sherman on his accomplishment and his representation of #USArmyBands!
