Trump added that “more than 300 Members of our strong and talented Military Bands, Orchestras, and Ceremonial Units, will perform Patriotic Melodies and American Classics, and my Playlist.”

The rally is also set to include military flyovers and airshows, according to the president, with the event ending with “the LARGEST FIREWORKS SHOW IN HISTORY.”
