Delivering timely and appropriate 'effect'
through the medium of music to serve
COMAFFOR/CFACC's strategic communication,
partnership building, and Air Force, Joint, and

Ashgabat, Turkmenistan While on tour in
Southwest Asia, Master Sgt. Steven Przyzycki, a
member of Mirage and part of the AFCENT Band,
discusses military music with colleagues from the
Turkmeni Ministry of Defense Band. This
fruitful demonstration of how music serves as an
international language and draws people of
different cultures together was followed by a
joint performance with the two bands before an
enthusiastic Turkmeni audience of over 1,100.
Members of the USAF and Turkmeni bands shared
their views of what life is like in their
military. (U.S. Air Force Photo by Master Sgt.
