I think everyone in the military felt it when the Cole was attacked.

I know that every military musician did.

There has been one military musician that won the Congressional Medal of Honor. An Army bugler that served during the Boxer Rebellion. Can't remember his name.

There has been one ship in US history named afer a military musician. A Marine trumpet player that served during WWII. When the fighting got too intense to play music, he served as machine gunner in a rifle platoon during the island hopping campaign in the Pacific. The ship named for him was the USS Cole.
