      Yea, German musiccorps do that aswell.
      In both England and Germany bandsmen traditionally aren't soldiers so they would never wear and rifle in any way but they still caried bayonets, while interestingly German drummers aren't part of the Musicial troops but the Infantry and they don't wear Bayonets.
