Staff Sgt. Rico Selbo conducts the 2nd Marine Air Wing Band in the rain next to New York Vietnam Veterans Memorial here, Sept. 7. Selbo re-enlisted in the Marine Corps earlier in the day overlooking the World Trade Center site. On Sept. 11, 2001, the San Antonio-native was 17 years old and reciting his oath of enlistment at a Military Entrance Processing Station in Texas when the twin towers were attacked. Ten years later, the Iraq War veteran Marine clarinetist asked to extend his service in the Marine Corps near Ground Zero. Selbo is a member of the 2nd Marine Air Wing Band stationed at Marine Corps Air Station Cherry Point, N.C. The band is in New York to commemorate the 10th anniversary of the Sept. 11th terrorist attacks.
