Taps always gets me.

I lost it when the trumpeter joined him. Thanks for the post Ginsue.

Yup, the trumpeter owned me, as well. God Bless them.

Thank you for posting. All gave some, some gave all. Mind if I share on my facebook?

Also, what was the background music? (Band of brothers theme?)

TAPS will always make me tear up. Even when I'm selected to perform it. One of the hardest compositions to play for me...

Please do; after all, that's where I got it.

Not sure what the background music was/is. I am one of those that believes that background music should be only subconsciously noticed, but be paired to the video to elicit the emotions desired. Most moviemakers these days are highly skilled at this. Obviously, the person who put together this presentation were skilled as well as the only music I recall was Taps.

TAPS. The first time I remember hearing it was at my grandfathers funeral at Arlington when I was in the 3rd grade. I've never been able to hear it without getting goose bumps and struggling to maintain my composure.
