For those who knew the Corps back then no explanation is needed. Having said that we were allowed to wear Crusader member T-shirts which negated the reasoning for us not being allowed to wear member jackets. Sometimes we didn't think things all the way through back then. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

CorpwithanS Posted July 29, 2017 Share Posted July 29, 2017 (edited) A special, now very ill 12 yr old I know...saw BAC live a few yrs back...He brought them ice and gato,fruit/treats..he now is outgrowing and wearing out his BAC (corps not member) jacket. Talented young musician, too. The small gestures often do make the difference, help form bonds, and make people truly feel great!

At one of the early Spring Flings, I won the silent bid for the BAC hero jacket. At the end of my week volunteering the last week of the corps ST in Folsom, CA. I spoke with the DM's, took the jacket out of Big Bird's trunk and handed it to Thompson with the request that it be passed on at the end of each season to the senior DM for the next season. Other than one time that it was missing for awhile, it should still be with the lead DM. 4 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Bsader Posted July 29, 2017 Share Posted July 29, 2017 We weren't exactly angels back then so that if their were any shenanigans perpetrated by a Crusader member while they were wearing a Crusader member jacket then they could be easily identified and the Corps would be held accountable. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
