43rd Army Band - Nebraska National Guard

43rd Army Band - Nebraska National Guard Welcome to the official page of the 43rd Army Band of the Nebraska National Guard. Musical variety shows are often on its schedule.

As the only musical unit of the Nebraska National Guard, the 43rd Army Band represents the National Guard at a variety of civilian and official military functions throughout the State of Nebraska. The band performs at parades, concerts, dances and receptions for military dignitaries. The band is comprised of "citizen-soldier" musicians from Lincoln and the surrounding area. Many of the members are

students, music teachers, or otherwise associated with the music field in their civilian pursuits. The 43rd Army Band replaces an Active Duty Army Band during its two weeks of annual training at least every three years. During alternate annual training periods, they perform concert tours throughout the State for the civilian communities or provide entertainment to the Nebraska Army National Guard units during their annual training.
