  Army Band Operations
  1-32. Army band operations provide support to the deployed force by tailoring music support throughout
  military operations. Army bands promote the Army and our national interests, enable commanders to shape
  the environment to accomplish their mission, and set the conditions that lead to trust and confidence in
  America’s Army and its readiness to conduct operations in peacetime, conflict, and war. Army bands
  contribute to unit readiness by building morale and cohesion, enhancing quality of life for Soldiers, DOD
  and DA Civilians, and other personnel who deploy with the force. See ATP 1-19, Army Music, for detailed
  information on Army band operations.
  Morale, Welfare, and Recreation Operations
  1-33. Morale, welfare, and recreation programs support readiness by assisting personnel with maintaining
  physical fitness and alleviating combat stress. The G-1/AG and S-1 coordinate for MWR support with Army
  and Air Force Exchange Service (AAFES) and American Red Cross (ARC) agencies. See AR 215-1, Military
  Morale, Welfare, and Recreation Programs and Nonappropriated Fund Instrumentalities, for detailed
  information regarding MWR programs.
  INTERCONNECTED HR SUPPORT FUNCTIONS
  1-34. Human resources support functions provide an interconnected system that sustains the fighting force
  and contributes to both national will and the will of the Soldier to fight. Through the execution of HR core
  competencies and their subordinate key functions, essential personnel information is managed, analyzed, and
  used by commanders in the decision-making process. Figure 1-2 depicts interconnected HR support
  functions.
