A very successful corps, the Raiders won the VFW championships five times and the American Legion championships twice, as well as 16 Pennsylvania state titles. In a 13-year run, the corps won 90 of the 129 contests it entered, and never finished lower than third.

The Vietnam War decimated the ranks of the Raiders, and the corps ceased competition in 1968. It was re-formed as an alumni corps in 1994.

This corps had the distinction of employing a hearse for the equipment transportation.
