Former Maine resident, Master Sergeant Don Dillenbeck
and US Army Field Band

April 7^th the United States Army Field Band will be performing at the Broome County Forum and one of the members of this prestigious band is a former local boy. Master Sergeant Don Dillenbeck grew up in the town of Maine, where his parents still live.  Dillenbeck says he “went to Maine-Endwell Central Schools. After graduating high school, I went to The Crane School of Music at SUNY Potsdam and received a Bachelor’s degree in music education and performance, and received a Master’s degree in trombone performance from Northwestern University in Evanston, Il.
I chose the Army for my career because I would be performing on trombone and serving my country at the same time, and the Army had a student loan repayment program!
Being in the U.S. Army Field Band is such a great honor, I get to work with great people doing what they are passionate about, performing music. I run the sound system for the Concert Band and Chorus and travel the country representing the Army and to tell the story of the American soldier, I love my job!”

MSG Don Dillenbeck is one more reason to come out and support the United States Army Field Band.
