After 1968 the Sea Scouts wanted to return focus to scouting. What resulted was the corps that competed from 1969 thru 1974. (Averaged about 40-45 members, 18-20 horns, 10 drum line, 12-15 guard. In 1975 a merger with the Skokie Imperials ended the corps. Even though not very successful former members went on to the Des Plaines Vanguard, Cavaliers, Vaqueros, U.S. Marine Drum & Bugle Corps, Imperials, Guardsman.
The corps went out with a bang in 1975 competitive color guard won a championship!
One season they put together a 2nd competitive color guard with members of horn and drum lines, a novelty. Appeared once on Chicago's Ray Rayner TV show.
The 1st uniforms were black & white, 2nd generation gold jackets Maroon sash, with grey pants/maroon stripe finally 1974 gold blouses, maroon diagonal stripe, maroon dickie, with maroon pants/gold stripe. White bucks and boots of course.
