i love this song for i am a true patriot and hope that our government will stop what they are doing and give us all our rights back as AMERICAN citizens why cant i speak up or own a gun arent these my rights maybe im wrong :(
This gives me flashbacks to junior high. I'm not kidding. I don't recall if it was an actual bugler or a tape recorder, but we'd hear this tune, the flag would be raised in the quad, and we'd all stand at attention and face the quad, no matter where on school grounds we were, regardless of line of sight. It was a little bit of discipline in a place that needed it the most.
@antman08015 they play this and not retreat? I'm based at Malmstrom AFB and this plays after reveille at 0700, retreat and the national anthem at 1630 and taps at 2200
@dandoosh90 Supposed to be retreat then to the colors @ 1700. Taps @ 2200 and Reveille @ 0700. I have never been anywhere that plays the star spangled banner during duty hours unless it is a ceremony. I have heard all the other bugle calls during ceremonies like change of command.
It used to be that, when I heard this, it was my husband snapping to attention while I scrambled around controlling our 2 dogs who didn't understand why their run had been disrupted. Now, I have them trained to "down" automatically when they hear it and they often hear it before we do and will "down" before we even know what's going on. I love hearing this.
@MrSock59 But its not the correct spelling and that has been proven through the oxford dictionary, the highest dictionary in the world. Color is the old english spelling, colours in the modern english. Its Australia by the way.
I love my cell phone!! I have recorded all of the Military calls and play 'em when needed. Every am for "COLORS", every pm 4 "RETREAT", When a Veterans come to the hide out I played their branch athem, alot of the partons stand and then we have fun and beer or 2!!! I get 'em real SNCO and I get choked!! :-0
When I was in the army we called this "Death Valley Days" because this song was used as the theme song for the TV show Death Valley Days. We did it mainly because it irritated the hell out of one Sargent who wanted us to call it by its proper name "Colors". But he could not do anything to make us do it.
What Sidthing says in the note above is correct. It was the precursor to the bugle call "
in a "battle" (say 17 to 1800's) "retreat" was sounded, then "to the colors" right after. Was just a pre radio way of saying, "fall back, regroup around your unit flags, and lets go at these bastards again"!
@Tankerc interesting. I didn't know thats why they were played in that order. They still follow one another today when played at the end of a work day on most military posts. You come to attention when you hear the beginning of "Retreat" and you present arms at the beginning of "to the colors".
@Rookie2033 You're right , time DID seem to stop when that was played over loudspeakers all over the post as they lowered the colors for the day . EVERBODY that was outdoors when that went off had to stop, come to attention facing the source of the music & salute till it was done . Even people in vehicles had to stop & un-ass their vehicles & do the same . Even if you were far off enough to where you could barely hear it , you could take your cue as to where to face , from people way off ......
@1959hogryder , I remember sometimes thinking what a pain in the ass it was to do exactly what you described. That was a different time - NOW, I would be happy to dismount and render respect.
Play "Retreat" by Moderatepopulist and then play this and you will have the military's retreat calls for the end of the work day and lowering of the colors; 17:00 (5PM).
Thank you for all who serve in the armed forces for the freedom we take for granted. Without you America wouldn't be the land of the free, or the home of the brave.
When I here this I snap to attention, salute with pride and think of those who shed blood and sacrifice their lives for our country. What pisses me is when I see some Soldiers and civilians not respecting this that's when I chew their asses.
@bocachula73 HA!! Same here! it happens all the time! Except I can't chew anyone out... I'm just a junior enlisted. Not much authority to hold, especially when it's the NCO's that do it...
Every morning at Lincoln Northeast H.S. this was played by 4 buglers just before the class would recite the Pledge of Allegiance. It was a very stirring sound to be out in the hallway when they did this. They stood back-to-back in an intersection of hallways on 2nd floor. You could hear it in every classroom on all three floors.
As an MP I was in charge a good number of times raising and lowering the flag in front of Division Headquarters in Germany. They would play this over the loud speaker. Brings back memories.
very confusing - some places it says this is more often used to raise, others say to lower the flag?? all agree that it gets same respect as National Anthem. Wikipedia says it is often following the "Retreat" call, but an Army guy told me they do the National Anthem to lower a flag, not this?? What's right???? At my BSA camp as a kid, this was the lowering call only. I am soo confused.
@frodonic sounds just like the Army and Air Force do the same thing. In the morning, Reville will play and the flag will be raised while To the Colors is played. In the evening, Retreat will play and the flag will be lowered as the National Anthem plays to end the duty day.

I played this @ my high school's c/o '96 graduation prior to the band playing the Star Spangled Banner. Afterwards, a Korean War vet came upto me and said that he got chills and goosebumps while I sounded off. I've never felt such honor!
i only wish i could play this call on my trumpet that fast, i can play it slow "open valve" witch is a little higher, but sounds mightier, onthetrumpet but slower, only once without mistake or inprfection.fellow buglers and trumpet players that also play military calls respect and know that this is not an easy call. in fact it takesprobaly lots of extra practice, respect and love to master this call...
I remember as a child stopping our vehicle and getting out for this. Memories! Man, us Military Brats had a cool upbringing! Yeah it sucked moving all the time but we got to see the world! God Bless our Servicemen and Women.
While I was in the Corps, this was played every morning, when you heard it you stopped whatever you were doing faced in the direction of the music, if in uniform saluted, if in civies you stood at attention for the duration. If you noticed people not at attention you shout "Colors!" If you were driving and noticed that colors was happening you pulled over. We'd always tried to duck into buildings if we knew it was around that time. I'd give anything to go back to those days.
This played in the morning whenever there was a General Officer on base. We didn't have to salute until the National Anthem played, but we were expected to stand at parade rest.
this is very inspiring, as if it kind of unleashes something inside that says go for it. my deepest respect to all those brave servicemen defending our precious freedom and peace. my full solidarity from germany. U.S.A & EUROPE ALLIANCE.
I had the honor of playing this call for a Veterans' Day Retreat ceremony today.
This is generally played in place of our National Anthem when using a solo bugler as opposed to a full band (or recording.)
In most traditions and regulations, "To the Colors" is rendered the same customs/courtesies as our National Anthem, even though it's technically "just a bugle call."
just to clarify before anyone flips about my comment: I ment no direspect to the Boy Scouts at all. I am simply stating that they really offer no military traning as the young marines and CAP would.
No worries I had not joinde the BSA for military training. I joined it so for once in my life I can get out of the house and get dirty and get cut by my knife and burned by the fire. That is how a young man is supposed to learn how to recognise that thats hot or thats sharp.
I am a boy scout and at camp they played this every day when they raised the Flagin the morning and lowered her in the evening. I am going to join the marines when I can my uncle is a marine and I am looking forward to saluting to him in my dress blues.
you should join the young marines or the Civil Air Patrol. They teach you so much more about leadership and military ways than Boy Scouts could ever offer. "Be prepared!" Ok, hand me the fuckin' lighter instead of two sticks!
lol i listen to this everyday.. im in the honor guard in korea so i actually do the flag details its pretty cool to watch actually id recommend trying to get to see it in person
"Be seated. Now, I want you all to remember that no bastard has ever won a war by dying for his country, he won it by making the other poor dumb bastard die for HIS country."
I remember the last day i heard the song while being discharge. I told myself i would never forget this sound i hear in the morning. Never. Alpha Company, 2/60th Panthers, Fort Jackson.
@mrbronze013 semper fi do or die, gung ho gung ho gung ho... i may not be 18 yet but first thing i am im enlisting in the U.S.M.C. ..... first ones to fight, first ones to die.... hell, i dont even care if i die, im takin some Iraqi towelhead motherfuckers with me
@MrJp990 by time you graduate marine training youll probally be stuck at base. iraq war is over, you might be sent to afganistan but thats it. semper fi good luck. - Future Marine 2013
@123nypd ok i know that, but i do want to serve my country like my dad. i want to follow in his footsteps, and i want to help my country to the best of my abilities
@MrJp990 how old are you 16 or 17, im 16 and joining after high school if you and me graduate i might see you in combat or recruit training. It will be the best desision youve ever made. dont forget the Marines is a brotherhood.
treat every Marine like your brother/ peace and good luck.
