This silver plaque was awarded to the USMC Drum and Bugle Corps, at Dallas, “In recognition of their outstanding contribution to the national heritage in the field of military music and pageantry” by the Texas State Fair.

The award was made on October 6, 1969, while fighting was still raging in Vietnam, a war in which the Marines were heavily engaged.  [sr] [ph:m]
