I've never seen this uniform before. At first, I thought it was a Marine uniform, but the awards, attachments, and rank show that it is a Army uniform. Any insight? PFC (Join to see) SFC Joe S.

There is no way I am ever going to remember the new names. I looked up the change to Fort Hood three times already and still can't remember it. Old age sucks, but so does renaming things.

Everyone is saying band, BUT band uniforms have inverted stripes. Also the two photos show two different service caps.

Most Army bands have normal rank insignia. Pershing’s Own in Washington DC do wear the inverted stripes which the person in the second picture is assigned.

19th Century stripes. Range from BN quartermaster SGT, 3 stripes and 1 bar to SGM 3 stripes and 3 arcs. Lots of these. They start at E-6 and progress rapidly to E-9.

West Point has its own Band, with its own traditional uniform. West Point would still be a training command, and they do need their music, I would have thought it would be made up of cadets, but I guess you can't have 40 members of the cadet corps continually studying music. Where would 40 commissioned officers with a bachelors degree in music go every year, Infantry? Cav? Probably not.

Looks like a West Point Military Academy Marching Band uniform.

At first glance I thought it was a soviet soldier, but what do I know. I served at three bases, Jackson, Polk and Benning and I'll go to my grave calling them correctly. I was born in the North and my direct great grandfather fought for the North yet if you search the last name many Grindstaff's fought for what they thought was right, the south. Cancel culture is destroying this country.
