Not sure if any of you have seen this slide show. A friend of mine who is retired Air Force sent this to me. I don't know what it is about Taps but I always get choked up when I hear it.

After the Battle of Dong Ap Bia, called Hamburger Hill in the US Press the Division Sergeant Major gave me this after the memorial service, it has always ment a great deal to me.
"They shall not grow old, as we that are left grow old,
Age shall not weary them, nor the years condemn,
At the going down of the sun and in the morning
We will remember them."

From this day to the ending of the world we in it shall be remembered. We lucky few, we band of brothers. For he who today sheds his blood with me shall be my brother. CURRAHEE
