Traditions are everywhere. They're a part of
almost every individual, group and community. They enable us
to recall the past, help
us understand the present and prepare us for the challenges
of the future. Traditions and customs are particularly important
to military organizations where morale, leadership and caring
for each other are important parts of everyday life. The U.S.
Army Military District of Washington carries forward one such
tradition in Twilight Tattoo.
