CORPS Photos

Founded by Bill Francis and Richard Harn, the corps was created as a feeder corps for the Lakewood Ambassadors. Dick Harn broke the Diplomats away from the Ambassadors and made them a junior corps. The Diplomats they were originally from AL Post 496 and they had a few name changes over the years. Originally they were the Los Alamitos Diplomats for a very short time, then Lakewood Diplomats, then Hollywood Diplomats, then the well known Lynnwood Diplomats sometimes referred to as the Lakewood /Lynnwood Diplomats.
