Rae, thanks for sending Taps. I don't think there
is any experience that is more touching than standing
behind a flag-draped casket after speaking at a
funeral of a service member and witnessing the
21 gun salute and the playing of taps. To me it is
impossible to stand there with dry eyes.
The origin of the 21 gun salute can be found at:
