U.S. Marine Corps photo by Sgt. Kathy Nunez/Released 170301-M-AD571-003.JPG

Sgt. Nathan R. Gembreska, a native of Toledo, Ohio, brought home a flyer for piano lessons at age seven and decided to begin his musical career as a pianist. Throughout middle and high school, he picked up the alto saxophone, piccolo, and bassoon and competed throughout the state. Gembreska joined the Marine Corps in 2013 as a bassoonist. He is currently with the III Marine Expeditionary Force Band in Okinawa, Japan. “Seventeen years later, here I am,” said Gembreska. “Because of that [decision], I’m playing the bassoon in the Marine Corps.” (Marine Corps photo by Sgt.
