Always choke up listening to Taps...this little gal is something special...


"TAPS"

At the Netherlands American Cemetery and Memorial in the village of Margraten, about six miles from Maastricht, there lie buried 8,301 American soldiers killed in the battles to liberate Holland in the fall and winter of 1944-5.

Sgt. Bill Dukeman, 101st Airborne Division, 506th Parachute Infantry Regiment, Second Battalion, Company C (of "Band of Brothers” fame) is buried there. He was killed in the battle of "The Crossroads" in northern Holland. The Dutch hold an annual memorial concert every September at the above cemetery to remember and honor the Americans who died to free them in Operation Market Garden and subsequent efforts to eject the German army from Holland. Sgt. Dukeman, like many other fallen GIs, was "adopted" by a Dutch family. Dukeman's family in the States was contacted and hosted in Holland, and his grave site is decorated each year by his Dutch "family." They keep his portrait in their home, displayed in a place of honor. Fathers pass this obligation down to their sons in Holland.

This version of the original "taps" music is played by a 13 year old Dutch girl named Melissa Venema. The conductor of the orchestra is Andre Rieu from Holland .

Many of you may never have heard taps played in entirety . The original version was called Last Post and was written by Daniel Butterfield in 1801. It was rather lengthy and formal, as you will hear in this clip, so in 1862 it was shortened to 24 notes and re-named Taps.

Melissa Venema is playing it on a trumpet . . . the original was played on a bugle.

Default Too bad you many will not look at this one

So take a Led Zeppelin tribute band that plays reggae style AND have the lead singer an Elvis impersonator, and you have...

Dreadzeppelin!

and they are damn good!
