  • The United States Army Old Guard Fife and Drum Corps is one of four premier musical organizations of the United States Army. Members perform using musical instruments and wearing uniforms similar to those used by military musicians of the Continental Army during the American Revolution. It is the only unit of its kind in the United States' armed forces, and is part of the 3rd U.S. Infantry ("The Old Guard"). The Fife and Drum Corps has been stationed at Fort Myer, Virginia, since its founding on February 23, 1960. Because members of the corps are classified under a protected Military Occupational Specialty (42-Sierra), there are men and women who have spent their entire military careers in the Fife and Drum Corps–a career track virtually unheard of elsewhere in the U.S. Army.
