Music became the centerpiece of a week of cultural exchange as the U.S. Marine Forces Reserve Band from New Orleans performed across Panama celebrating Freedom 250, the upcoming 250th anniversary of the United States. From Colón to Panama City, Panamá Pacifíco, Veracruz, and more, the performances brought together students, families, local communities, Panamanian security forces, and youth marching bands, highlighting the enduring friendship between the United States and Panama through music.
