I'll just post what I got:

DCI/DCA -- none

HS -- 2 yrs. Only started a marching band when I was a Junior, though we always had a band in the stands.

College -- 5 yrs. Also did some arranging.

Military -- 8 yrs total as a Musician mostly doing HS recruiting, but still a fair amount of Ceremonial duty which involved marching (pass in review, parades, etc.).

I bet there's a decent percentage of people here that don't know what "pass in review" is.

Heh.  I barely do.  We had one parade we marched every summer that was actually a judged affair and there was one listening to music and one watching you pass in review.   I think they actually stopped judging the parade after my first year.

OK - right now we are at 53.5 years marching Drum Corps; 136.5 years total marching (including instructing) experience

 

A whole lotta very impressive resumes here. If we ever start a DCP All-Alumni corps, it'll be tough to pick a head designer. 

I'll volunteer right now to be the prop pusher. How hard can it be to push around 165 oxygen tanks?
