By serving in two World Wars, the Korean War, Vietnam, Desert Storm, Afghanistan, Operations Iraqi Freedom and Enduring Freedom, and in the war on Terror, as well as continually providing support and aid to those in need when all types of disasters strike, our American service men and women have made us all swell with pride.Therefore, we pay honor to all the brave men and women who helped to make, and continue to make this country, the greatest nation on earth!The WVU Band would like to thank the following individuals for helping to make our Patriotic Show possible:• J.T.

Apr 6, 2012 - Yes, they are better because they are one of the best drum corps in the country that practices the same show for the entire season and prefect it for semi-finals and finals. For a COLLEGE band of 300+ people, of which only about 15% are music majors, to sound that good and look that good after ONE WEEK of prep is pretty freaking awesome. And that is the trademark sound of this band. They are known for it.

Apr 12, 2012 - When I see something so patriotic and beautiful as this I choke on the fact that obama is sitting in the White House and a sitting congress is sitting on their hands. We are avwounded and dying Republic as a result of the short-sighted, ignorant masses who believed the crap and voted him in. But worse yet is a congress that is so lifeless and uncaring as to do nothing while rome burns.

May 22, 2012 - god damn chauvinism. promoting war is barbarous. but ofc, if you ask someone from the U.S.A. something about germany, they usual talk about the still living Hitler. they cant even imagine what nationallism is about, though they are those who are still living in an overrated country, exploited by the heads of economy.
LIONSMANIAC Says:
May 24, 2012 - LOL - trust me, nobody is worried about Germany anymore...that was almost 80 years ago!Germany's new army = 250 coke bottles with skunked-gasoline, 500 sharp rocks and 1000 'welfare-sucking' Muslims!
