  1. Taps is the name of the song you are thinking of.  

    It is the same tune played by bugle at memorial services and funerals of fallen service members.

    Most Marines don't know that Taps actually has words:

    "Fading light dims the sight,

    And a star gems the sky, gleaming bright.

    From afar drawing nigh -- Falls the night.

    "Day is done, gone the sun,

    From the lake, from the hills, from the sky.

    All is well, safely rest, God is nigh.

    "Then good night, peaceful night,

    Till the light of the dawn shineth bright,

    God is near, do not fear -- Friend, good night."

    Best of luck to you.

    Semper Fi


  2. TAPS is played at lights out and that is when your day is done..

    Yes sir

  3. Yes it is and there is actually an interesting story behind where TAPS supposedly comes from look it up on the internet the story involving the civil war and a father and son is the one I'm talking about in case you find multiple ones.
