What’s the point of a band in the military?

What do they do for the military? Do they fight? Do they get paid? Are they outsourced musicians or are they actually part of the military? Also, why?

They are part of the military and go through basic training like other soldiers, or at least used to be. Source: my dad played drums for the Army band.

Edit for another fun fact: there are also Army artists! Or at least used to be. After my dad played in the band, he drew illustrations for Army manuals. Obviously this was way pre-digital era.
