Achille La Guardia & children (from display at Ft. Lowell Museum)
Achille La Guardia composed the 11th Infantry March (among many other good tunes)
and often featured his son Fiorello as cornet soloist. Achille lead the band at Ft. Whipple for a long time. So, it's a good bet you can find out a lot more at the The Sharlot Hall Museum in Prescott, Arizona.
