Introduction and Background Lowcountry Joint Land Use Study Goals The reasons for undertaking a Joint Land Use Study (JLUS) for Marine Corps Air Station (MCAS) Beaufort closely parallel the reasons why the Department of Defense (DoD) established the program. “Most military installations were originally located in remote areas, distant from urban areas due largely to the availability of land and for defense and security purposes. Over time however, in- stallations drew people and businesses closer and closer to take advantage of civilian job oppor- tunities offered by the installation and to provide the goods and services to support the installa- tion’s operations.

    Semper Fidelis March Sousa, John Philip Semper Fidelis March by: John Philip Sousa Original Copyright: 1888 By: Carl Fischer BandMusic PDF Library Chester Nettrower Collection Music Committee Members Tom Pechnik, Senior Archivist; Mary Phillips; Wayne Dydo; Bill Park, Director North Royalton, Ohio www.bandmusicpdf.org John Philip Sousa DOB: November 6th, 1854 (Washington, DC) DOD: March 6th, 1932 (Reading, PA) John Philip Sousa wrote the most famous American military marches of all time, including "Stars and Stripes Forever," earning him the nickname "the March King"; he was also known as a great bandleader, and organized the famed concert and military group, Sousa's Band. Born in Washington, D.C., on November 6, 1854, Sousa followed in the footsteps of his father, a musician in the U.S. Marine Corps, and enlisted by the age of 14. Before this, Sousa had studied violin with John Esputa. While active in the Marines, he composed his first march, "Salutation." Around the age of 16, Sousa began studying harmony with G.F. Benkert, then worked as a pit orchestra conductor at a local theater, followed by jobs as first chair violinist at the Ford Opera House, the Philadelphia Chestnut Street Theater, and later led the U.S. Marine Corps Band (1880- 1992). Although most famous for his marches, Sousa composed in other styles as well, including a waltz, "Moonlight on the Potomac"; a gallop, "The Cuckoo" (both in 1869); the oratorio "Messiah of the Nations" (1914); and scores for Broadway musicals The Smugglers (1879), Desiree (1884), The Glass Blowers (1893), El Capitan (1896; which was his first real scoring success), American Maid (1913), and more.
