Navy Band Great Lakes Musician 1st Class Dave Paff performs during a 160th birthday salute to Lt. Cmdr. John Philip Sousa here, Nov. 6. Sousa, known as “The March King,” started the Navy’s first band and music school on Navy Base Great Lakes in 1917. The current members of Navy Band Great Lakes performed four of Sousa’s marches: “Semper Fidelis,” “The Washington Post,” “The Thunderer” and “The Stars and Stripes Forever.” The band performed the marches in a replica of the gazebo on historic Ross Field that Sousa directed his band during World War I. The replica gazebo was built in 1986 by Navy Seabees to commemorate the 75th anniversary of the base. (U.S. Navy photo by Scott A. Thornbloom/Released)
