Sponsored annually by the U.S. Army in
cooperation with MENC,
the National Association for Music Education, , the All-American
Bowl game features high school seniors representing tomorrow's
college and NFL stars in a classic East vs. West football match-up
at San Antonio's Alamodome. Through the All-American Bowl, the
U.S. Army is helping to shape these future leaders by providing
a national forum for these student-athletes to showcase their
extraordinary talents. Additionally, over 90 U.S. Army All-American
Marching Band musicians will perform during half time. The honor
recognizes the nation's leading high school musicians who share
the U.S. Army core values of loyalty, duty, respect, selfless
service, honesty, integrity and personal courage. The national
selection of band members is based on a broad range of attributes:
musical accomplishment, academic achievement, leadership abilities,
and community service. The U.S. Army All-American Marching Band
is a top-tier validation of their accomplishments.
