In this edition of the Pick the Week, we just can't get enough patriotic music. Before the Presidential Inauguration month comes to a close, this Pick of the Week brings you Presidential Inauguration Music playlist part III. This edition includes Offenbach's "Marine's Hymn" performed by Second Marine Aircraft Wing Band, "Hail to the Chief" performed by The United States Air Force Concert Band, and Berlin's "God Bless America" performed by The United States Air Force Concert Band. We hope that this edition inspires you to learn more about the patriotic songs traditionally performed in past U.S. presidential inaugurations.
