Founded in 2020 by retired Air Force bugler Jari Villanueva\, Co-Founder of Taps for Veterans\, this powerful tradition began as a way to bring Americans together during the pandemic. Instead of parades and public ceremonies\, thousands of musicians—professional and amateur alike—took to their front porches and local landmarks to sound Taps in unison. \nWhat started as a moment of remembrance has grown into an annual Memorial Day tradition. Each year at 3:00 PM (local time)\, musicians from all backgrounds join in a synchronized\, nationwide sounding of Taps\, uniting the country in a shared moment of honor\, remembrance\, and reflection. More than 10\,000 musicians participated in the inaugural tribute\, and the movement continues to grow\, ensuring that no sacrifice is forgotten. \nWhether you are a musician\, veteran\, or simply someone who wishes to pay tribute\, Taps Across America welcomes all to take part. Together\, we ensure that the echoes of gratitude and remembrance resonate across the nation. You can play in your hometown by signing up at www.TapsAcrossAmerica.org  \nJoin Taps For Veterans and the Doughboy Foundation this Memorial Day and help keep this powerful tradition alive. \nTaps will also be sounded at 5 pm on Memorial Day. \nThe ceremony is free and open to the public. \n3 pm sounding of TapsYour support for the Doughboy Foundation will help fund our mission in perpetuity\, inspiring future generations of visitors and forever honoring our World War I veterans and all U.S. servicemen and women.
