THE VIP DRUM AND BUGLE CORPS

A story told by a member of the VIP’s alumni
There were very uneasy times for us during the latter part of the sixties. There were times of changes and great civil unrest in most large urban cities.
The assassinations of the Kennedys, Martin L. King Jr. and Malcolm X served as focal points for much of the unrest. The Vietnam War protests contributed to the civil unrest. Despite these trying times and through the efforts of one man’s sacrifice, Father Phillip St. Amand changed the lives of the more than 100 young people who participated in his community project.
