The corps won the S.A.L. (Sons of the American Legion) State Championship in 1961 and 1963, and took the national S.A.L. Championship in 1961. They sponsored the annual Drum Corps Magic and Fiesta Day Parade. Corps colors were blue and black.
The Vikings from Bensenville merged with the Viscounts of McHenry to form the Viking-Viscounts in 1967. This group finished third in the Illinois State Championships that year. The corps disbanded in the early 1970s.
