The Regimental Band and Pipes functions as a single cadet company, although it is composed of two units: the Regimental Band and The Citadel Pipe Band. The Band has been part of The Citadel tradition since 1909. The director of the Regimental Band from 1984 to 2004 was Major Herbert L. Day, U.S.M.C. (Ret.). He was succeeded in 2004 by CDR Mike Alverson, U.S.N. (Ret.). (DH)
