Keith Clark (bugler)

Keith Collar Clark (November 21, 1927 – January 10, 2002)[1] was a bugler in the United States Army who played the call "Taps" at the funeral of President John F. Kennedy in 1963. He fluffed the sixth note, and to many this mistake was a poignant symbol of the American nation in mourning.[2]
