On April 4, 1974 beginning at 8:04 pm, President Nixon and Vice President Ford held a dinner in the State Dining room at the White House honoring the Chowder and Marching Club. After World War II, a cadre of Republican up-and-comers in the House formed a group that embodied these impulses to join and make a mark: the Chowder and Marching Club (C&M). “All of us were young, all of us were new members of Congress. All of us were veterans of World War II,” Richard Nixon of California, a charter member, explained years later. “We were concerned about the strength of the United States and we were concerned about how we could help secure peace.”
