I like female Marnies :) LQTM.

Even if you don't have a Bachelor's degree or Master's, can you still possibly be accepted into a field band? I know it would be better to have a college degree, but I'm just curious. Also, how can you tell that a band (besides the "Commandant's Own" and "President's Own") has vacancies in their band? Do you contact a recruiter?

@TJkiwiOWEG Depends on the band and what instrument a Marnie plays. Many band members have Masters Degrees and the standards are high so we are competing against orchestras and colleges for band Marines. If we don't retain these Marines we lose them and recruiting is already difficult. "The Presidents Own" band Marines are career musicians who audition and are hired as Staff Sgt's. They don't go to boot camp and don't have cross-rifles on their rank.
