Mobility Brass
Mobility Brass is the newest performing group of the United States Air Force Band of Mid-America. With the traditional instrumentation of two trumpets, French horn, trombone, tuba, and percussion, the ensemble is known for its versatility and outstanding musicianship. Airman First Class Kathryn Yuill is a member of this prestigious performance group, and is a 2011 graduate of Appleton East High School.
In the Appleton Memorial Day Parade, Mobility Brass will perform the service songs of the Army, Marines, Navy, Coast Guard, and, of course, the Air Force.

An antique, horse-drawn funeral coach will be featured symbolizing the heroes lost in battle. One of the many faces of freedom lost due to their selflessness.
Memorial Day Parade appearance sponsors: Brettschneider Trettin Nickel Funeral Home and the Appleton Education Association.
