List of units of the military music service in the army of the Bundeswehr
The list of troop units of the military music service in the army of the Bundeswehr contains all dissolved, active and inactive (equipment units, cadreed battalions) associations and large groups of the military music service in the army of the Bundeswehr as well as a brief overview of their time of deployment, stationing locations, subordination and their dissolution or renaming .
Introduction to the numbering conventions
From Army Structure II to Army Structure IV (around 1990), the Army Music Corps was numbered using a stringent numbering convention. During this time, the name could usually be taken directly from the subordination of the battalion or regiment. In the event of a change of subordination, reclassification, etc., the number has usually been consistently adapted, apart from exceptional cases. Conversely, during this period, associations with the same number cannot always be seen in the same line of tradition. After 1990 and the incorporation of parts of the disbanded National People's Army and the considerable reclassifications in the years after the end of the Cold War , this adjustment was often no longer made; the associations often kept their name by tradition. Your assumption can usually no longer be derived from your number. However, certain conclusions can be drawn about their origin and tradition. In the following, the system is presented according to the size of the associations. The following considerations on the system of the designation are to be understood only as a principle concept, even for the period before 1990. In the case of troop attempts, in the formation and disbandment phase, etc., deviations from the rule are repeatedly encountered.
