    A Scottish pipe and drum band poses formally in front of a white columned pergola covered with climbing vines and red roses. The group of approximately eleven men are dressed in traditional Scottish Highland attire including kilts, black jackets, and bow ties. The setting appears to be a formal garden during autumn, with fall foliage visible in the background.

    The United States Air Force Band's bagpiper Tech. Sgt. Adam Tianello, from Rochester, N.Y. (second from left), joined former members of the U.S. Air Force Pipe Band, some of whom played for President John F. Kennedy's funeral in 1963. This gathering occurred for a special ceremony at Arlington National Cemetery on Nov. 16, honoring the memory of Army bandsman Keith C. Clark, who played Taps at Kennedy's funeral 50 years ago.
