Those listed under “accounted for” are individuals that I have been able to get a hold of, or who have gotten in touch with me since the beginning of this site in 1999. Some of those individuals stay in regular contact, and others do not. If you have any info about anyone on this list, or anyone who should be on this list, please send it to me.

The Marine Corps Musicians Association has a reunion every year that is held at one of the Marine Corps bases that has a band. The reunions are held in April.

Pascale and I attended the Fifteenth Annual Reunion, that was held at Marine Corps Air Base Miramar in 2000. It was very well organized with plenty to do and see. We saw Connelly and Fucuals, because they were members of the band, and we saw Deex, Ferdman, and Rheaume, because they happened to live in the area. Check out the photos from this event in the gallery.

For those of you who are trying to track down former Marine Musicians, here is a link to the old MCMA Guest Book that still worked last time I checked. You might find who you're looking for in there.

I try to keep the above links up-to-date, but they change fairly often. You know how the military keeps making changes to things that work perfectly fine. A new guy (or gal) comes in, takes over the job from the person who's leaving, and then proceeds to completely reinvent the wheel.
