The Cadets is one of the most honored drum corps in history and it needed to recreate its brand to be more in line with the current image of the corps. Since the corps’ formation 75 years ago, there is only one image that has stayed consistent - its uniform. The maroon and gold West Point style uniforms are immediately recognizable like no other in the drum corps activity.
