PAO

This article is just a copy/paste of a PAO statement as found on the Drum Corps website. Who's maintaining this? It'd be more interesting to get someone like Hook ( Is he still alive? ) to come up with a real history and lots of details about the D&B. —Preceding unsigned comment added by Chrpai (talk • contribs) 04:14 UTC, October 31, 2005

I don't know what a PAO statement is, but this article has undergone several revisions and in my opinion is a good history of the corps.

The changes made on 7 Aug 2007 removed signifcant good material about the corps including information about Truman Crawford. That material definitely belongs in this article. I'm sure that Hook, who is definitely still alive, would agree.

"PAO" = Public Affairs Office....the PR arm of the unit. —Preceding unsigned comment added by 98.112.220.192 (talk) 23:34, 8 January 2010 (UTC)[reply]
