Guess Who?

I wonder if this guy was considered when Quentin Tarantino "Cast Aldo" Raines for Inglorious Basterds. -

Pretty sure I recognize this guy. Not in for long but initials B.B. ?? -
Ray, very profound as usual. I have been away from the activity for a very long time now but always seem to follow the season, and most importantly, the successes (or lack thereof) of my alma mater (very proud to see them back, by the way). I seriously doubt the crowning of a Midwestern Champion will have any negative effect on the DCA and agree wholeheartedly with Tom that the economy and the same things that have us in this mess have taken their toll on drum corps.The additions of DCA members from all over the country, allowing real competitive regional competition throughout the season with a final championship at the end makes it a very viable entity. MBI's championship ended a six year (or so) dynasty that was NOT good for the DCA in my opinion(no disrespect to the amazing accomplishment of the Buccaneers). I see this as a milestone of a stronger DCA in the future. Pete

The gates were cinched with a chain and you could only squeeze through by opening as far as it would go. A bunch of us squeezed through , with Pepe going last, struggling for about 2 minutes and finally squeezing through. All out of breath , he sees Bobby Hoffman walking toward the same gate and says.. " go around Bobby, you'll never make it". -

Yes, One season in Sun . I know he was with the same corps as some recent postings prior, but what happened after 69 is news to me. Are you telling me he was back in Sun in 96-97? -

This guy marched for one season, 1969. Initials BB. I haven't heard a word about him since then. Somehow Garfield rings a note but not sure. -
