ABOVE & BELOW: The right and left halves of a panoramic photo taken of the Boys of 76 drum and bugle corps at the 1950 American Legion National Convention at Los Angeles, CA.
The person standing directly behind the bass drum in the center of this photo is Harald Kahlert who also was the Kilties first drum major in 1936. This photo is so large that I had to piece it
together from four scans.
