Byron Posted December 6, 2006 Share Posted December 6, 2006 Let me start by saying this isn't meant to be a bash on either the Blue Stars or the Troopers organizations. How are the Blue Stars affected by the return of the Troopers? I ask this because a lot of Troopers went to BS in 2006 because their corps was inactive. Are these members now returning to Troopers? Are they staying at their new home? How is this affecting BS's numbers as far as vets? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
raphael18 Posted December 6, 2006 Share Posted December 6, 2006 Something tells me that BS isn't having any trouble filling out their corps. I doubt it would really affect the corps - it would just require some individuals to make the choice. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
morganhill Posted December 6, 2006 Share Posted December 6, 2006 I agree, BS should have no problem whatsoever in filling their ranks. I guess we will all have to wait until the 2007 season draws to a close to see how the two corps ranked against each other. I wish both organizations the very best of luck and success! And, by the way, welcome back, Troop! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
MGCpimpOtimp Posted December 6, 2006 Share Posted December 6, 2006 I've heard from my friends at BS that they have about 50-55 vets in the hornline returning, they'll be fine. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
BozzlyB Posted December 6, 2006 Share Posted December 6, 2006 I know of at least one BS who returned to Troopers after marching with BS for the 06 season. The numbers from BS 3 auditions are APPROXIMATELY: 120 brass (of which 53 are returning vets) 110 percussion 45 guard I would imagine Troopers have benifitted somewhat from some of the corps going inactive.

SkyRyder_FMM Posted December 6, 2006 Share Posted December 6, 2006 IIRC, there were only 2 or 3 former Troopers marching with Blue Stars last year, so I don't believe the OP's contention will be much of an issue. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
AlexL Posted December 6, 2006 Share Posted December 6, 2006 IIRC, there were only 2 or 3 former Troopers marching with Blue Stars last year, so I don't believe the OP's contention will be much of an issue. yup.. i think there were 3... and 1 may be staying with blue stars last i heard. so... 2 lost... but you consider how many vets are back (it was a very young hornline, with only 3 of us aging out from it)... Blue Stars arent gonna have any trouble at all this year. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Byron Posted December 6, 2006 Author Share Posted December 6, 2006 my bad...i was under the assumption there were a lot more than 3. i guess that's what happens when you assume.... sorry, guys Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
trooper11 Posted December 6, 2006 Share Posted December 6, 2006 I am one of the 2 that have officially gone back... don't know about the 3rd I know that the one that might return to BS, might not, or might not march at all due to money issues... but we'll find out i guess Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
