NanciD Posted June 29, 2006 Author Share Posted June 29, 2006 And thank you Nanci for letting me know Keith answered :P Psst yerself ^0^ :P Good idea on the Hurrcs but not sure what headgear they wore in early 60s. Pretty sure it's the Reilly Raiders fom Philly. Reilly always did Irish music and their attitude was "get in my way I'll march over you". Reilly beat the SF Renegades by about 40 years in wearing bad ### black unis. From what I read (thank you Carol Hooten) the brim of the hats were worn 2 finger widths above the nose (check the cartoon again). Again, wearing a hat that low was considered bad ###ed. Not to mention wearing something that looked like a Nazi "Gestapo" hat that soon after the end of WWII. Never saw the corps but have some of their recordings. Considered one the the best Sr corps in 50s/60s and unfortuately broke up in the late 1960s. Jim! I thought you *knew* the answer.... and that's why you offered the extra credit question. I get your reasoning for guessing Reilly, but that aint no clover leaf that's a maple leaf. LOL You better look again: http://historical-drum-corps-publications....on-6-12-63.html Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
