"the tuba brigade is ready, sir" the soldier told the corporal.
"bring up the piccolos as well" ordered the lieutenant. 
"have the glockenspiels arrived yet?" asked the colonel.
"no sir, but the clarinet snipers are in place" said the soldier.
"keep the bassoons in reserve, then" ordered the general.
and the battle commenced.
the oom-pah squad advanced on Park Bench #23, clearing it after heavy breathing. 
Admiral Hartwig bombarded the duck pond with player pianos until the enemy retreated into the bulrushes. 
stragglers were beaten with ukuleles.
a battalion of bagpipes was wiped out when the enemy surrounded them with scotch tape.
in a surprise move, the enemy formed their shopping carts into a V and charged recklessly into the middle of the orchestra. Admiral Hartwig issued kazoos for a kamikaze last ditch attempt, but it was too late. All belligerents were now tone deaf. 
this correspondent watched in horror as every violin was sent to summer camp.
