The Florida A&M University Marching 100 Band, known for its precision and innovation, can trace its history back to 1892. Yet a key period in its history is marked as June 1, 1946, as William P. Foster transformed the band into "The Most Imitated Marching Band in America." Foster's influence led to the band's rise to national and international acclaim.
