fsubone Posted July 14, 2011 Share Posted July 14, 2011 I always like Marauders, it just sounded cool. Nite Express wasn't bad at all Bleu Raeders anybody? And this wouldn't be a list without Vanguard, or Cavaliers, or Boston Crusaders. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

GeneralTsoChicken Posted July 14, 2011 Share Posted July 14, 2011 Tragic of Orlando Sorry bub, some jokes don't go over well. The staff members and other corps members literally kept this corps from starving. That's where this nickname mostly comes from, and that's not funny. Ever. (and yes, I say that as one of the biggest trolls on the board) But you are a newbie, so no worries! Just be careful with that one. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

scsudrummer Posted July 14, 2011 Share Posted July 14, 2011 Ballantine Brewers (still, to my recollection, the only corps with a corporate name) Pioneer technically has a corporate based name. The Pioneer Container Company sponsored the new corps after it was formed from the Imperials of St. Patrick and The Mercury Thunderbolts. There is absolutely no connection between the company and the corps today, I don't know if the company even still exists. Also, I think Minnesota Brass had a "corporate" name back during its early days, Grain Belt Diamonds, I believe was their name. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Hook'emCavies Posted July 14, 2011 Share Posted July 14, 2011 Boy Scouts troop 111... or The Cavaliers both are awesome! 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
The Other Mike Posted July 14, 2011 Share Posted July 14, 2011 I always like Marauders, it just sounded cool. Nite Express wasn't bad at all Bleu Raeders anybody? And this wouldn't be a list without Vanguard, or Cavaliers, or Boston Crusaders. As much as I loved Bleu Raeders ( so much I changed corps to march and teach there) I loved the name Stardusters (where 1/2 the Bleu Raeders came from ) Anyone who was around for VFW 71, Stardusters came in 13th. Those Royal Airs uniforms really looked great on the dusters Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
