On July 4th, a U.S. Military Joint Armed Forces Orchestra & Chorus, including members from “The President’s Own,” and U.S. Army Herald Trumpets proudly provided the soundtrack to an unforgettable celebration of our nation’s semiquincentennial. The performance included remarks from the President of the United States and special guests, such as distinguished war veterans, the Artemis II crew, Lee Greenwood, Christopher Macchio and more. The night ended with a patriotic firework display over the nation’s capital with full musical accompaniment from the orchestra and chorus.
