Frederick Jacobi
Frederick Jacobi. Saxophonist in the U.S. Army Band, Alcatraz Island. Jacobi had hoped to enlist in the Medical Corps, but when the recruiting officer learned that he was a musician, the officer ordered him to play saxophone in the army band—despite Jacobi's protest that he had never played the instrument.
