I knew a hundred bugle calls.

I learned to play the bugle. And I played in the bugle band in London, England and that’s where I learned to play the bugle. Yeah, I was a boy scout. And then I got older and I don’t know how old I was when I got my first bugle. I told my father I wanted a bugle and so I inquired where I could buy an army bugle, you see. And he gave me the address of an outfit that sold surplus, army surplus. And we went down to the city of London, on Pope Street I think it was. Popes was the name of the outfit and we bought an army bugle. There was always a call, calling up different sergeants on duty, duty sergeant, orderly sergeants. There was a special call for several things, several reasons. And I think, in all, with both cavalry and army calls, I knew a hundred bugle calls. First call you make in the morning is the get up. “Rouse up, rouse up, da da dun dun da da dan da da . So you blow the rise, or the rouse, and then you blow the fall in, and the dinner call, call for the meals. “Come to the cookhouse door, boys. Come to the cook house door.”
