Thank you to all our veterans. A special thank you those who made the ultimate sacrifice for our country. I can still remember hearing my father play TAPS at Memorial Day Services and funerals when i was al iitle kid. While i didnt realy grasp what the song meant, i knew it was important. As we grew older, we came to understand the magnitude of what this song truly meant. Twenty-four notes. Its a simple melody, 150 years old, that can express our gratitude when words fail. Taps honors the men and women who have laid down their lives and paid the ultimate sacrifice for the cause of freedom. While there are no official words to the music there are many versus created over the years..my favorite: Go to sleep, peaceful sleep, May the soldier or sailor, God keep. On the land or the deep, Safe in sleep
