Taps at the National World War I Memorial


https://www.tapsbugler.com/wwi-memorial-taps/

Taps For Veterans is honored to announce that we have been asked to coordinate buglers to sound Taps each day at 5 pm at the New National World War I Memorial in Washington DC. The National World War I Memorial is located in Pershing Park on Pennsylvania Ave between 14th and 15th Streets.

Taps will be sounded by a bugler each day at 5 pm to honor the memory of 4.7 million Americans who finished a fight they did not start, in a land they had never visited, for peace and liberty for people they did not know. We honor those Doughboys who did their ‘bit’ for their country.

The daily 5 pm sounding of Taps will begin Monday May 24th and continue for 25 weeks ending after Veterans Day. The call will be sounded at the foot of the flagpole at the Memorial. We will update this page will a roster of buglers

The daily sounding is with cooperation of The WWI Commission, The Doughboy Foundation, The America Battlefield Monuments Commission, the National Park Service and Taps For Veterans.

The Doughboy Foundation is asking for your support to help fund this daily sounding of Taps so we can continue it year round to honor the doughboys of WWI.
