USAF
Drum Corps Founder
Brig. General Sidney "Rosie" Grubbs
Brig. General Sidney "Rosie" Grubbs had always dreamed of having his own Drum & and Bugle Corps. In December 1949, he recalled to active duty Captain Herbert J. Gall, who was given the assignment to organize the finest Drum & Bugle Corps ever assembled. General Grubbs was eventually transferred to Ramey AFB, San Juan, PR to become Base Commander handing over the reigns to Captain Gall. The Drum Corps old-timers fondly remember the love and dedication both leaders shared with the troops knowing the USAF Drum & Bugle Corps would have never been born without their capable leadership and devotion.
