The Washington Commanders Marching Band is the marching band for the Washington Commanders of the National Football League (NFL). The group was established in September 1937 by a local milk company and quickly embraced by team owner George Preston Marshall as The Redskins Marching Band.
The group is recognized as the oldest marching band in the NFL. After a two-year hiatus during the COVID-19 pandemic and Redskins naming controversy, in 2022 the Washington Commanders Marching Band was formed.
