“They shall grow not 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…”

Lest We Forget

(What a haunting melody, played beautifully…)

Well played bugle call on a bugle. (Mostly heard these days played on a trumpet). I don't want to be overly picky but it is not a song, it's a bugle call.
