Hello All, Brand new member chiming in here... Just read most of the stuff on this thread, and see I am not alone in many of my thoughts of old corps vs. new, While much of the discussion revolves around units from the 50's and 60's, compared to modern day, I am curious as to your thoughts of the integral transition period of the seventies. It was then that I was fortunate enough to march with Michigan's only national champion corps, and rub elbows with many of the "old timers". I learned much, highly respected the history, and gleaned a whole bunch of inspiration and comradery from those experiences. It was obviously the time of the birth of DCI, the end of the "tick" era, as well as other changes. What say you as to this time frame, and it's impact on the activity? Thanks, John Sonefeld Saginaw, MI
