Talk:Reveille

message: Hey everyone, do you think we should have a reveille ambiguous page?
Where did the tune come from? 
Why was "Reveille" chosen for its title? 
Did the "Reveille" tune replace an earlier tune to start the army's morning?  
Wikipedia was my final resort for this research, and offered me no enlightenment. sigh

message: This article states that the flag is raised during Reveille on US bases. As far as I know, though I am not an expert on the Army or Air Force, that's untrue. The flag is raised later, during Colors. I'll wait a few days before fixing it, in case anyone has objections. Kafziel 18:11, 24 April 2006 (UTC)
replies: text: If memory serves, you're correct. First comes Reveille or Retreat, then the cannon, then To the Color while the flag goes up or down. Outdoors within earshot, individuals not in formation are supposed to face the music on their own and come to parade rest before the gun, present arms or salute after, while To the Color is sounding. _ Just plain Bill 22:11, 24 April 2006 (UTC)
replies: text: To whomever wrote the above, this might be true at certain installations, but the order and time is not determined by a "usual way", it is done at the discretion of base/post/camp/etc. commanders. In addition, I have heard Reveille played at bases on foreign soil too, so your assertion is not true. If you disagree, please cite a source of some kind. Also, please sign your posts. — BQZip01 — talk 17:40, 5 July 2007 (UTC)

message: In the music presented here, for some reason there are ties where there should be slurs. Such as the two sixteenth notes in measure 1. I would fix it if I knew how. Someone who can, please fix this. —The preceding unsigned comment was added by JPadron (talk JPadron 13:33, 24 February 2007 (UTC)

message: I removed a new sentence from the lead paragraph which referred to Reveille (Texas A&M), since it's covered there very thoroughly and the Reveille (disambiguation) page is just one click away. Beautiful dogs, though! :) Best wishes, DBaK (talk) 16:53, 26 July 2009 (UTC)

message: It should be, but apparently isn't (at least not to the editors) obvious that different tunes should be kept separate and not mixed into a mash-up of ambiguity. Example:"British Army Cavalry and Royal Horse Artillery regiments sound a call different from the infantry version shown below, known as "The Rouse" but often misnamed "Reveille", while the Scottish Regiments of the British Army sound a pipes call of the same name.[citation needed]" Wow. Perhaps this totally run-on sentence should run on another couple of hundred words? I mean why not. "while the Scottish Regiments..sound a pipes call of the same name." Same name? TWO NAMES were mentioned! Are we supposed to divine which is meant? If "the Rouse" isn't reveille, then it deserves little or no space in the lead. Perhaps a "not to be confused with" statement. I also question the lyrics of the USA version. Specifically, the line that goes "I can't get them up this morning". The way I learned it, it was "I can't get them up in the morning". Now I have no idea whether the version I learned is right, but it fits the notes better so I am mentioning it here. I'd say citation needed, but the seems to be little maintenance of this and so I doubt whether they'll ever be provided. The supposed lyrics to the so-called Commonwealth version don't fit the US lyrics AT ALL. A complete clusterFk. 173.184.25.50 (talk) 02:14, 8 January 2018 (UTC)
