The last time I heard this was at Ft. Hood, TX. My retirement papers were in hand, and I got stopped in front of 1st Cav Division Headquarters. I exited my vehicle, turned, and saluted the flag, and then I knew, its all over! My Army service was done after 21 years. Brought a tear to my eye. AIRCAV for LIFE!!! HHC 3/227th AHB, 1ST AIR CAV, 1st CAV DIV 2010-2114!!! I'd go back to Afghanistan with y'all ANY DAY!!! Spearhead two-three November signing OFF. OUT!!!

There's nothing wrong with that but it feels a little weird and I prefer retreat and to the colors, so sometimes when they play retreat, I'll instinctively start whistling To the colors as I'm driving away...

@@macesports, yeah, I look back at my time in the Navy and have very fond memories of it all. I remember in BOOT CAMP the bullshit that we went through learning how to fold T-shirts, socks, skivies, etc. I thought to myself WHAT A COMPLETE WASTE OF TIME! Had I stayed in the Navy, I would be celebrating my 45th year I there. I would have been one of those OLD MASTER CHIEFS WHO JUST SAT AROUND AND DIDN'T DO ANYTHING BUT EAT AND SLEEP! But, when I was in, the regulations mandated that you MUST RETIRE at the age of 55. IDK if it's still the same or not. I discharged the Friday after Thanksgiving 1978. Back then, the RE-UP BONUS was only $500. There were TONS of young MEN who were waiting to get into the service and RE-UPPING wasn't as popular then as it is now. After I had been a civilian for about a month, I wanted to get back in the Navy. I went to the recruiting center where my ORIGINAL recruiter was still pulling his duty there. He made a few phone calls and sent a couple of letters but, long story short, I had been HONORABLY DISCHARGED and the USN said thanks for your interest but there were way too many people ahead of me! I could have gotten back in but, I would have lost my rate and rank(CS3) and would have had to do a mini boot camp as they called it plus wait another 4 1/2 months. Where did you go to boot camp and when? I was in San Diego but that one closed YEARS AGO. I think the only one that is left is Great Lakes but I am not sure. I spent ALL of 1976-1978 on the same ship stationed at Pearl Harbor, Hawaii. A dream come true for me! BTW, I STILL FOLD MY T-SHIRTS THE SAME EXACT WAY 45 YEARS LATER!!

I always the last to get on the intra barracks shuttle. SO I could stand outside and render the hand salute for the bus. I felt privliaged and honored every time Retreat was sounded. Serving may times on Flag detail. That was a tremendous honor to serve. 🙂

That's so cool. I'm 65 years old and still remember summer camp with the Boy Scouts. It changed me forever, even though I never went into the military. They played Retreat at about 7pm with everyone in a large formation in an open field; everyone saluting. Then they fired a cannon, and played To the Colors as they lowered the flag. The parade marshal snapped "two!" and we all returned to attention. It just makes you feel proud of your country, and a part of something bigger than yourself. Boys today need some of this stuff.....

It’s things like this, where you’d counted the days until you’d never want to do again. Then you finally get out of the service, and you never have to do it again. And you hear this, randomly. And it brings you back. For a brief moment, you’re back in formation, with your buddies, in the hot sun, or the cold rain, saluting to the flag. And even though it sucked, you hated it, and never wanted to do it again; just for a brief moment, you wish you were back there. Back where it somehow made sense, but it didn’t. Just for a moment…
