    JOINT BASE MYER-HENDERSON HALL, Va.-- Nearly 3,000 people attended the Twilight Tattoo performance hosted by Lt. Gen. Jody J. Daniels, Chief of Army Reserve and Commanding General, U.S. Army Reserve Command, on May 22, 2024. The event celebrated the strength, traditions, and history of the U.S. Army through dramatic vignettes and musical numbers. It also included eight static displays showcasing Army Reserve capabilities.

    Twilight Tattoo is an annual ceremony dating back to before World War II, serving as the U.S. Army Military District’s celebration of the Army’s impact. It highlights significant aspects of the Army’s history, as well as its contributions to advancing medicine, science, and engineering. Soldiers from the U.S. Army Military District of Washington's ceremonial units, the 3d U.S. Infantry Regiment (The Old Guard) and the U.S. Army Band "Pershing's Own" took part in the show.

    The public event also demonstrated gratitude to civilian partners for their support. Attendees included school groups, community members, elected official representatives, former senior leaders, Army Reserve Ambassadors, businesses, and members of veterans organizations.

    Daniels was the host of the evening’s festivities, giving special recognition to the role of the Army Reserve. Before the show began, those in attendance had the chance to speak with Reserve Soldiers and learn about airborne operations, military vehicles, medical equipment, and CBRN robotics.
