The 'Twilight Tattoo' is an event showcasing military talent featuring skydiving by the Army's Golden Knights and displays by the Old Guard Fife and Drum Corps, complemented by precision drills from the US Army Drill Team. A major parade in Washington follows, projected to attract 200,000 attendees, alongside military equipment and personnel. While the occasion marks a celebration of military service, criticisms arise over its timing and financial implications, leading some to believe it favorably aligns with President Donald Trump's birthday instead of honoring veterans.
