Bulger honors fallen heros

By Amanda Lloyd
Throughout America, fallen heroes, service men and women and veterans who have died are honored with the traditional playing of “Taps “at funeral services.
A pre-recorded version is played at many of these funerals; although, one non-profit group, Bugles Across America, is on a mission to provide services to those who desire a live bugle performance of “Taps.”
Bugles Across America was founded in 2000 by Thomas Day, who felt that those wishing to have a live rendition of the song at a funeral service, should be given the option.
