Their day is done
St. Louis Post-Dispatch
About 75 veterans die each hour, according to the Department of Defense. There aren’t enough buglers to play taps at each of the funerals, which keeps players like Forrest Tosie busy. The Weatherbird is picking up a trumpet to mark this Memorial Day.
Bird line suggestions:
- A serious note
- Bugle boys
- When duty calls
- Noteworthy
- A call to arms
- A dying art
Today’s Bird line: There day is done
