Hi list
Sorry if you are getting this post more then once. The information I am
looking for was posted on one of the list I belong to. But I can't
remember what list.
Not to long ago there was a story on one of the list I belong to about the
the story behind the military taps. I thought I had kept it. But now that
I need it for my grandson's school work I can't find it. Could the person
that posts it please send it to me.
