Beginning June 14, the familiar bugle calls at Fort Detrick will be joined by a special percussion instrument: a cannon.
A single cannon shot will be fired on the first note of “Reveille,” which signals the start of each day and is accompanied by the raising of the American flag. “Reveille” sounds at 6:30 a.m. At 5 p.m., Fort Detrick plays “Retreat,” which alerts the post that the flag is about to be lowered.
