The 72-73 year was the most active in the Regimental Band's history. The period marked the completion of the instrument replacements, resulting in the Regimental Band being one of the only silver military bands in the coun- try: Performances during the 1st of the year included a homecoming half-time show, music for the United Fund in Rockefeller Center, the Dept, of Commerce Awards Cere- mony, and the dedication of the world's largest and fastest container ship, the SS Sea-Land McLean. Jan. 1st saw the band in Dallas, Texas as the official band of the.Cotton Bowl. After participating in the 73 Presidential Parade, the Band staged the 2nd Edition of the Kings Point Tattoo, which proved to be one of the most colorful events ever performed at the Academy. Maritime Day, the Armed Forces Day and Memorial Day parades, reviews, colors every morning, and a summer lawn concert ended the year, making the Band one of the most busy activities at the Academy.
