Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: When Gilbert Knapp founded Racine in 1834 and the first pioneers settled there, no one had the remotest idea that the wilderness would one day transform into a thriving city. Ideally situated on Lake Michigan at the mouth of the Root River, the site was chosen by Knapp because of its harbor potential. The prospect of farming on the level prairies surrounding Racine also attracted many of the area s first settlers. Racine County is especially suited for growing wheat, which immediately became the county s leading agricultural product. The town of Racine quickly became a prosperous center serving the needs of the area s farm population. Even Racine s industrial base was founded on wheat; in 1842, J.I. Case invented a wheat thresher that helped Racine to grow into one of the foremost industrial centers in the United States."

Download or read book The Racine American Legion Post 76 Drum and Bugle Corps written by George D. Fennell and published by . This book was released on 2008-12 with total page 428 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Throughout America's history, the call to war was heralded by the sounds of the drum, the fife, and the bugle. But after the fighting was over, the music remained. At the end of World War I, musical marching units nationwide moved in a new direction, as they began to participate in music and drill competitions, parades, and festivals. With the advent of the American Legion came the reorganization by newly returned veterans in Racine, Wisconsin, of the Wisconsin National Guard's Batteries C & F Drum and Bugle Corps into the American Legion Post 76 Drum and Bugle Corps, which would come to be known as the Racine Boys of 76 Drum and Bugle Corps. Though much is known about the Racine American Legion Post 76 Drum and Bugle Corps' activities and triumphs after World War II, history enthusiasts were left to wonder what happened during the years of its initial birth and development. Inside these pages is a rich scrapbook history that fills in the pieces of the missing years (1916-1946) and shows how one of the American Legion's greatest drum and bugle corps became the national champions, setting the pace in music, equipment, and drill maneuvers.
