donnebrook Posted January 19, 2007 Share Posted January 19, 2007 There were, at one time, alot of them so feel free to add the one's you rememberPhantom Legion Phantom Regiment) Mello Debs (Mello Dears) Yellow Pages (Black Knights) Cavalier Cadets (Cavaliers) Madison Scouts Cadets (Madison Scouts) Blue Devils B Santa Clara Vanguard B Dutchboy Cadets and now it's your turn.... When I marched in the Cavaliers, the Cavie Cadets were very successful. Much of the "A Corps" as we called it then was comprised of past members of the cadets. Many of the guys I marched with started when the were 9 an 10 years old and continued to march with the organization until they aged out. Boy have times changed.

JeromeyBush Posted January 19, 2007 Share Posted January 19, 2007 You are right the Kidetts helped keep the corps going during the dark years of 74 and 75 .Without them I think the Bridgemen would have folded. I was in the Kidets(one t) as well.79-80 :) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Donny Drum Corps Posted January 19, 2007 Share Posted January 19, 2007 St. Joe's had the "Peanuts", but the name became the St. Joseph's Brothers when we got good! LOL We actually beat a few corps at the state championships in 1966. That is when a lot of us went up to the "big corps". OK Storky?

audiodb Posted January 19, 2007 Share Posted January 19, 2007 I am pretty sure the all-girl corps The Capitolaires from Madison had a feeder corps. Can't remember their name though. The Petites. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Scooter Pirtle Posted January 19, 2007 Share Posted January 19, 2007 Don't forget one of the best feeder corps names ever: The Eye-Openers (Iowa?) allegedly had a feeder unit named "The Winks." Remember that one Chromik? Classic. -Scooter Pirtle Black Knights Thomas L.

CrossmenAlumni Posted January 19, 2007 Share Posted January 19, 2007 Didn't Iron Cross merge with 507 Hornets to create The Crossmen?Oh, right, they did.........sponsored by John Wesley Cross Post. 507 merged with the Keystone Regiment to create the Crossmen. The Iron Cross was formed a few years later as their feeder corps. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
