Yes, God willing and the creek don't rise. I'd love to take my 5 ton, but I have to get some fuel issues worked out first.

The drum and Bugle Corps always put on a great show. And the Silent drill platoon is the best I've seen. I saw them a few times years ago.

Do they put out any type of schedule of when and where they are performing? I would love to see them in person, if they ever make it out to the mid west (anywhere near Kansas)

I was in the Drum and Bugle Corps for some time. We did this show every year. As for going to the mid west, we didn't seem to perform there much. I had wished we would have played in the mid west more since I have lots of family in Colorado. You can always request them to come.

I don't really know. I received my info from a guy I work with. He had a flyer that had been emailed to him. He gave to Marine that we both work with and that is when I heard about the event.

The only other drill team that I have seen in person was the Air Force Drill Team back at Ft. Hood back in '87.

Will there be room for a 2 1/2 ton in the formation?

I will plan on the dates. Convoy to the coordinates?
I am out of Corona.
