Those of you that are Aggies, or know a little bit about the Aggie culture will understand what a big deal this is. My nephew was selected as one of the three drum majors for the 2017 football season! I could be prouder of him!
The Corp of Cadets is the backbone of Texas A&M, and the band is the backbone of the Corp. It is what makes A&M unique. So this is a really big honor, and puts my nephew in a leadership role that will help to mold him for the future when he goes on to serve his country as his father, and father before him, did.
My nephew is on the right.
I also have to brag on my niece, who also goes to A&M. She wanted to go support her brother and be there for his audition, but her car was in the shop. So.... She walked four miles to the drill field, leaving her apartment at 6 AM so she could be there for his 7 AM audition. He was touched, as he should have been.
She took a video with her phone as well. The quality is lousy, but here is my nephew leading the band for the very first time. Again, I couldn't be prouder!
