Rebecca is a beautiful, lovely 20 years old young lady who is a member of our corps family at Sheffield Citadel.
Seven years ago she contracted Reflex Sympathetic Dystrophy (RSD). This condition is quite rare and extremely difficult to treat. It affects one of her arms so much that even the slightest air m...ovement results in intense pain. June and I have witnessed some of the 'minor' pain attacks.

Her illness has, of course, had a devastating effect on her family.

Chicago Staff Band Back from our tour, the CSB will be on duty at our Commissioning weekend including Friday evening, Saturday morning, Saturday evening, Sunday morning, Sunday afternoon and then the retirement of our Executive Officer Lt. Colonel Mickey McLaren.

Our 2009 European tour has come to an end and I thought I'd take a shot at a few fun facts to list for you. OK... You'll have to decide if these are fun facts or not...

Adam Hall Hey guys...just wanted to say that it was an honour to play with you at the weekend. It's not often that two Staff Bands manage to get to play together. I'm so glad that there was a good turn out for your last tour concert too! Hope you all got home safely! Adam
