I remember Patt Lindberg and husband Earl well. They attended a 1961 contest and from that were inspired to start the Mt. Prospect (later Schaumburg) Guardsmen. It took a few years for the Guardsmen to take the field, but by the later 1970s they were impressive indeed. Of course by then the drum corps Golden Age was long past; it was the DCI era, and corps were folding right and left under DCI's policies. But the Guardsmen had a good 15-year run, better than some. I wonder what happened to Patt and Earl? They were 100% drum corps.
