Retreat was played pretty fast, It sounds better when played slower and methodically. Also full band Retreat sounds really good too. Those white cords on the Band's tunic look sharp.
@155NYLTpiper Thanks, we will do a retreat like this before each home game usuall. And the white cord was awarded to the Highty Tighties for service with the 2nd Virginia regiment in the Spanish American war. By tradition it is worn inside out.
This was awesome :) But I have a question. Is each platoon/ company separated by different types of military (Marines/Navy, Army, Air Force)?

@MadMickeyTV1 - the VT Corps of Cadets do not separate the companies or battalions by branch of service.

@MrNuvi Would a midshipman get the uniform that all other midshipmen around the country get or do they only get the Corp of Cadets uniform?

@xXThermobaricXx Cadets wear the cadet uniform.
