Bands play a significant role in cadet squadrons. Cadet bands provide our squadrons with accompaniment for ceremonial occasions add visibility within the community. The cadet band program provides individual cadets with a challenging, worthwhile means of developing as cadets, musicians and members of the community. It is led by a band officer and the drum major.
