 Los Angeles, California, USA
-One of earliest Christian punk rock bands. members went on to join [[Bomb Bay babies]] and [[Delirium Blue]].
+Part of the Los Angeles Christian music scene in the mid to late 1980's, and one of the earliest Christian punk rock bands. "The first time I ever saw a chick in a Christian band that was full-on punk rock band. She had a six-inch high Mohawk, playing bass. Association of the Cross – their name was painted on my jacket for years." – Mark Solomon of [[The Crucified]]. At one point in 1985, Dennis Rudolph of [[Conviction of Sin]] was in this band as well. Denis also commented once that several former members of A.O.T.C. performed in a one-off impromptu gig at a place called Safari Sam's under the name Midnight Mass in 1985.
-===== Discography: =====
+They were the last punk band to play at a Calvary Chapel. Apparently Chuck Smith saw the band and shut down the Calvary Chapel Costa Mesa Christian concert series. AotC broke up because of this. On born April 7, 1986 Neal and Jamie joined up with Jamie's brother Alex on vocals and Chuck Rodriquez on guitar to form [[Delirium Blue]]. Delirium Blue was a precursor to [[Bomb Bay Babies]].
