A wind instrument is any instrument that uses air to be played.
Examples of wind instruments in Marching Bands:
clarinet, flute, Saxophone, trumpet, tuba, Trombone.
Usually people don't march with double reed instruments such as the oboe and bassoon.
Piccolo.
A piccolo is a half scale flute, with the same fingerings as the full flute. Its pitch is one whole octave higher meaning that a player can use the same music as a full flute.
Marimba, Sousaphone, Marching Tuba, Bari sax, baritone horn, tenor sax. Anything else that could be played in a very low octave is relatively large
Types of instruments in a marching band usually include woodwinds (saxophones, clarinets flutes/piccolos,) brass (trumpets, sousaphones/tubas, euphoniums, trombones, and baritones,) and percussion (marimba and chimes and gongs in the "pit" portion, and a drumline composed of quints, snares, and bass drums.) Occasionally, some marching bands will employ stringed instruments hooked up to electric amplifiers, but the nature of those instruments often impair the musician's ability to march.
Bands don't have a string section if they are classed as brass, silver or marching band. If they are a "dance band" similar to that we see in the period of Glen Miller then they would have had double bass

Some wear the marching band hat strap under the chin to keep it in place, others wear it on the chin to look more aggressive (but it often leads to hats left on the field). Ask your band director which is correct for your band.
There is no set number. It can vary from 3 to 30.

You can listen to marching band music when you attend a marching band competition, or when you cheer on your favorite college marching band marching in a parade. There are also numerous marching band shows and demonstrations that are available to watch streaming live on the Internet. As of 2009, most marching band competitions are shown on Internet servers or on broadcast television. You can also watch some real good marching band competition live on ESPN 3.

Tuba Drum Keyboard Trombone I'm leaving the original answers above - however I am not sure the nature of the original question: "stuck carrying" is a bit vague. If you are referring to weight then Tuba, Drums, Baritone Saxophone come to mind. If you are referring to safety - then the Bassoon comes to the front of the list If you are referring to Tradition - Then I would say Clarinet, Saxophone, and maybe flutes. Because marching bands have become more known for Brass type instruments (more so since organizations like DCI have emerged where woodwind instruments are not apart of the band). Overall though I again say I don't understand your question. The instrument you play in marching band is usually your instrument of choice (meaning you have made that decision without consideration of marching band). Your chosen instrument is usually what you would play (with the exception - in most cases - of string instruments that are not used in marching band - with some exceptions but when used are pit instruments) A person is usually not "stuck" carrying anything.
Maybe not marching band specifically, but for some reason if you can read music, math and science is easier. I do not know why though.
