​(33rd Army Band, the USAREUR headquarters band) to the Nato band Fest​ in
Mons, Belgium was asked to play a memorial in Roulx for the last soldier
killed in WWI,  a Canadian. We were only asked to do the Last Post, and I
helped with the wreath. I think I have heard of the custom of Reveille
after Last Post, but am not familiar with the use in this case. Don't even
know if their Reveille is the same as the one we use.
