The notes of Taps will echo throughout the National Mall at existing veterans and war memorials and at future memorial sites on and around the National Mall. #NotesOfRemembrance is coordinated by the Trust for the National Mall and the National Park Service, supported by The Doughboy Foundation, and in conjunction with our partners at sites across the National Mall.
No registration is required to attend, and visitors will be invited to pause for reflection.
