This book is quite comprehensive.  It has 426 pages filled with such things as every American Legion Wisconsin state and national championship  scores
through 1946 and details of many of their major trips of this era.  This book starts with the organization of Racine's Batteries C & F in 1916, follows them to
France during World War I and back home again.  It details the organization of Racine's 32nd Division Veterans Association Club, Racine's American Legion
Post 76, and the Racine American Legion Post 76 Drum and Bugle Corps.  This book covers the glory years of the Racine American Legion Post 76 Drum
and Bugle Corps and it ends when the drum corps opened up its membership to World War II veterans in 1947.  The purpose of the book is to chronicle the
history of the Racine American Legion Post 76 Drum and Bugle Corps during the years that it was solely a World War I veteran's organization.
