So, I’ve been told that Army is only taking prior service for SF and Linguistics by a regular recruiter. What is the validity behind that for bands?

Check with one of the band liaisons. They can dispel any myths...

I have a sixteenth note run in measures 3 and 7 in the dogfight. I only hear recordings with a quarter note instead. Which one should I record?
