Taps
In honor of a fallen soldier. Thank you for your service. Play Taps, or the full honors with a 21-gun salute. Length is the call itself.

Salute etiquette
During Taps, veterans and service members salute. Civilians place a hand over the heart. Remain until the last note fades. Three volleys of seven rifles are the 21-gun funeral honors; Taps follows.
This page plays a synthesized bugle call and recorded rifle samples. It is a memorial respect on Notice Nearby — not a Department of Veterans Affairs service, not a military formation, and not enrollment on American War Heroes. Playing Taps here does not verify service and does not place a name on a war roll.
Family-authorized VA cemetery memorials stay on the VA cemetery memorials register. Paid family pages are a separate product.
