Growing up with polic/military family, play the piano myself, and finally in the tech industry, most in my family thought I am a softy for being part of the latter. This goes to show that the discipline and mindset of being a military family brought me far to be great at other things. Hope my family sees that they too can be good in everything else, and it does not take away their police/military spirit.

      Not actually true. This isn't educational, nor is it for personal use, so it doesn't fall under the fair use clause of the Copyright Act. If you are using copyrighted material for monetary profit, it's just easier for a court to assign a dollar amount to the lawsuit, so lawyers and the courts are more likely to go forward with the suit. Even ignoring the obvious benefit the Army is getting for recruiting, you can sue for violation of copyright even if the violator has derived no benefit from your work. It's why Disney famously sues the absolute pants off of every day care and orphanage and hospital that paints Mickey Mouse on their walls. Even though they're not profiting from the use of the images.

      In order to preserve their trademarks, Disney is very careful of their brand. The first reason being that it implies a partnership or endorsement between Disney and the other party. Because Disney can't actually control how that separate entity does business without owning them, they will typically sue or threaten legal action if their intellectual properties are not removed. Secondly, it is in their best interests to do this because it's how they preserve their trademark. Copyright infringement is not automatically enforced by any entity, and Disney has to continually renew their copyright by objecting to its violation. The statute of limitations has been changed on the public domain use of copyrighted material several times BECAUSE OF Disney and their legal hold over Mickey and friends.
      But thirdly, and most importantly, I think you missed the joke.

      The musicians and conductor were fantastic , it was All done very well except it was not mixed properly. My apologies to the recording engineer , it’s a hard job. Not just the profession , but to make a live performance sound just like a Hollywood mix from a show…. They got very close !

      I'd bet money from my own experience in the Army they brought this up, and some spineless senior NCO simply yelled at them and told them to just shut up and do what they're told. Glad I got out, lmao, Army has gone to hell in a hand basket over the last ten years.

    Wow, this is the first time I have seen TUSAB use recorders since the Army Orchestra played the 2nd Brandenburg Concerto in 19seventy-something with Dr. Barry Epperly conducting at the National Academy of Sciences. Nice work recorderists, et al.
