Eugene Ormandy, Music Director of the world-famous Philadelphia Orchestra, is Director of the School. ....- Newspaper Article (The Palladium-Times, Oswego, NY, Tuesday, July 24, 1973)
FULTON - "Miss Peacock, you've just made Navy history". Those words were spoken to Miss Sheila Peacock (SA-MU) daughter of Mr. and Mrs. Carl R. Peacock of 306 Walradt St., Fulton. The reason for comment was her recent acceptance to the Navy band, a stroke for Women's Lib as the 1971 graduate of G. Ray Bodley High School was the first woman to join the 350 males at the Little Creek Amphibious Base School of Music.-Five more girls followed in Sheila's footsteps, breaking a 71-year-old tradition.
Pursuing her career in music prior" to" enlisting In the "Navy, Sheila attended the Crane School of Music at State University at Potsdam, and also studied with the Philadelphia Orchestra directed by Eugene Ormandy, at the School of Orchestral Studies at Saratoga Springs. Her instrument is the French Horn.
Students 'at the Little Creek Amphibious Base are trained for Army, Navy and Marine Bands making it the largest military school of music in the world. At the school Sheila will receive six months of instruction in theory, ear training, harmony and related music subjects. Upon completion, she will be assigned to one of 41 Navy bands based throughout the world.
And Miss Peacock devotes her free time to the study of music also, by playing with the Virginia Beach Symphony.
Coming from a musical family, Sheila's sister Marcia and brother Bruce both traveled to Vienna with the G. Ray Bodley High School Band, Bruce playing the French Horn also and Marcia the alto clarinet.
Asked about her treatment at the school Sheila said, “I am treated equally here, but I don't demand any more than equality." and further, "Face it, there are some things that women and men are not equal in". But it seems that finally the Navy recognizes that musical talent is not limited to either sex.
