Hey guys today we have to find out what a bugle call was. I decided to post mine. I have put all the bugle calls and the definition of what a bugle call is. Here they are!
What is a bugle call?
A bugle call is were they have a trumpet and they have different calls, they retreat men,assemble the men and to warn men. I will tell you all about the calls and what the are.
First Call:
Is a call to warn the soldiers to prepare to get into formation.
Reveille:
The call told the men to come out of their beds and get ready for the day.
Asebbley:
This call was signalling the men to form ranks for the first three roll calls held through out the day.
Guard mounting:
Assignments for the guard duty followed the 9 am call of guard mount.
Drill Call:
Was a warning to turn up for drill
Recall:
Signals duties or signals to ceace.
Mail Call:
Mail calls signalled personnel to assemble for the distribution of mail.
Officer Call:
This call signaled all the officers to assemble at a designated place
First sergeant call:
Warned that the first sergeant was about to form company.
Retreat Call:
The retreat call signaled the end of the official day.
