Taps sounds the final farewell

The cornet Reno used for Kohl’s funeral has a special history. Engraved on the silver instrument below the ornate gold anchor and “U.S.N” artwork are the words “Great Lakes.” The cornet was made in 1917 for the band at Naval Station Great Lakes in Chicago, Illinois, which at the time was under the direction of Lieutenant Commander John Philip Sousa.
