NanciD Posted May 25, 2013 Author Share Posted May 25, 2013 so she's good stock. and so is her daughter..........or queen! Awwwww You big suck up!! LOL Thanx, Honey! But, back on topic... I recall having a picnic type lunch with him and his mom.... can't recall the year but, anyway... he said something about his corps just plain wasn't up to par that competition and rightly didn't deserve to win. That, to me, is a class act. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
TennTux Posted May 25, 2013 Share Posted May 25, 2013 My memory was off in my reply to Andy but found a picture of the scoreboard. IIRC, this is the pic that the NY Daily News ran with a short caption of what happened. Full Masslive article with pic THANKS Jim!! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
TennTux Posted May 25, 2013 Share Posted May 25, 2013 my only real experience with him came in 2000 when I taught there...he came in the weekend his academy was at West Chester and gave the corps a talk. So focused, so intense, but still a Buc thru and thru. I do have two favorite moments tho in 82, when Westshore had Tommy Sipe chucking those rifles in the air, my little brother, all of 4, went up to him at Carlisle and told him about how he liked him, but about what Tommy was doing. he was so gracious talking to a 4 year old never missed a beat and said "I'll have to work harder!" make it 3 memories...87...in the rain at prelims/finals....with a cast on his wrist...didn't drop a #### toss and in 2005 before Bucs victory run. Josh Decker, then Bucs DM, was one of his best pupils. before they started the run, Josh climbed up on the box, and down on the field, he was there, in his corps jacket, saluting Josh. The last DM to conduct a Bucs champion saluting the newest one. 2005 DCA Champs - Bucs, George Parks & Josh Decker (THANKS knightsbari for this "once in a lifetime" photo! ) Though this photo is a little dark, George stood there, saluting Josh, and waited until Josh saw him and saluted him back...
