RCMP sunset ceremony<\/h5>\n

Presenting the Colors<\/strong><\/p>\n

Since 1983, the RCMP Training Academy in Regina, Saskatchewan has performed this ceremony referred to as a “Military tattoo” – an old British military tradition dating back to the 19th century.\u00a0 The term “tattoo”, derived from an old Dutch word that means “turn off the taps”, comes to us from the 17th century when a soldier’s life was strictly controlled by his regiment.\u00a0 The daily routine of a military post was signaled by the beat of a drum.\u00a0 At sunset, a lone drummer was sent into the streets of the town to beat out a tattoo.\u00a0 This was the signal for the tavern owners to close down for the night, and for military personnel to return to the post.\u00a0 Once they had returned, the flag was lowered in a ceremony marking the end of another day.<\/p>\n

This 45 minute event includes the firing of a cannon, a Troop drill display, the lowering of the flag with the playing of military music, and the March Past.\u00a0 For the occasion, troop members are dressed in their traditional scarlet tunics and period customs, lending character to the ceremony.\u00a0 Horses and riders are also present, as is Safety bear, to entertain the spectators.\u00a0 \u00a0 \u00a0 \u00a0 \u00a0 \u00a0 Summer 2002<\/p>\n
