Anchors Aweigh

We jam. We laugh. For four days we share stories of bad gigs, fair winds and good grandchildren.

But the highlight of a Navy Musicians Association reunion comes on Saturday night: a Navy band files into the ballroom, the conductor gives the downbeat and a hundred or more former MUs rise and snap to attention at the playing of the song that, with every passing year, means a little more to us.
