At the end of World War I, musical marching units nationwide moved in a new direction, as they began to participate in music and drill competitions, parades, and festivals. With the advent of the American Legion came the reorganization by newly returned veterans in Racine, Wisconsin, of the Wisconsin National Guards Batteries C & F Drum and Bugle Corps into the American Legion Post 76 Drum and Bugle Corps, which would come to be known as the Racine Boys of 76 Drum and Bugle Corps. Though much is known about the Racine American Legion Post 76 Drum and Bugle Corps activities and triumphs after World War II, history enthusiasts were left to wonder what happened during the years of its initial birth and development. Inside these pages is a rich scrapbook history that fills in the pieces of the missing years (1916 1946) and shows how one of the American Legions greatest drum and bugle corps became the national champions, setting the pace in music, equipment, and drill maneuvers.
