The Band's uniform were second-hand police serge, suitably altered to fit the first corps members. White peak caps with a star shaped badge with a cornet in the middle completed the uniform, a replica of the badge adorns the Band's headed paper and is reproduced here on these web pages forming a link with the past. Permission to display the Brentwood Town Crest on the Band drums was sought from the District Council and freely given.

To promote the newly formed band, The Romford Drum and Trumpet Corps held a march through Brentwood town centre and so the Brentwood Drum Corps was born.

In 1971 it became obvious the band required new uniforms. After due discussion a military style uniform of grey and scarlet was adopted. It is this uniform the band members wear today.

In 1976 it was decided to recruit girl band members - a decission that no one has ever regretted.

With members both old and new the Brentwood Drum Corps looks forward to meeting the challenges of the 21st Century, continuing in the bands fine musical tradition and formation marching display.
