| Honoring General John J. "Blackjack" Pershing's 161st Birthday Schedule of Events for Monday Sept. 13, 2021 5:00pm - Regular Playing of "Daily Taps" at the WWI Memorial Flag Staff. As we do every evening at 5pm at the WWI Memorial, a bugler dressed in a World War I period uniform will play "Taps" — the distinctive bugle melody played at U.S. military funerals and memorials. | 6:00pm - Wreath laying and "Echoing Taps" at the Pershing statue and around the Memorial. On this special occasion, there will be a wreath laying at the Pershing statue followed by "Echoing Taps", a musical experience where taps will sound from multiple buglers around the WWI Memorial. | 6:30pm - A Concert at the WWI Memorial by the U.S. Army Band. The General's birthday will be topped off with a performance by the U.S Army Band, known as "Pershing's Own". (weather permitting.) | | | | |
