Grenadier Posted April 30, 2017 Share Posted April 30, 2017 Any other forum members march with a Long Island Drum and Bugle Corps. If so, what corps and era did you march with the corps. I marched with the Medford Golden Grenadiers in the 60's. We went from a fire department parade corps with drums, horns and glocks to an M&M corps. Grenadier.

Florida Sun Posted June 15, 2017 Share Posted June 15, 2017 Frank didn\t you also march Queensmen ? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ironlips Posted June 16, 2017 Share Posted June 16, 2017 Yes I did, CC. I just didn't consider St. Albans as "Long Island" since it's in Queens, technically in "the City". You're right, though. From the standpoint of Geography, like Brooklyn, it's actually on "Long Island". Incidentally, one of our St. Albans and Mineola buddies, Billy Cobham, is being inducted into the World Drum Corps Hall of Fame. Go, Long Island! 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

We went from a fire department parade corps with drums, horns and glocks to an M&M corps. Grenadier. I was the kid who carried the First Aid kit for Bert Ellis. When I played little league at Tremont Ave. school, we were so bad that we'd turn the benches to watch Paul Litteau put the Walshes, Hamms, Ellises, Vaughns, etc through their paces. That started me, a saxophone player to love drum corps. That's at time when FD parades were at least two or three times a week and Suffolk and Nassau Counties had 5 circuits. When the corps merged with the Kings Park Kingsmen, I went along to help admin but helped form "the other Phantom Regiment color guard organization." The rest is DCI's bane. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
