This is a military gig I’d try to get if they took people my age

Women have been proud members of "The President's Own" since 1973.

Sorry. 35 is the maximum age.

This is a gig I would have loved when I was draftable. It was the Vietnam war and band members don't get shot at as much.

Really? I'm actually surprised about that. Of all the military groups? Not the Jazz Ambassadors?
