Fort Sill’s Retreat Ceremony Explained

If you have ever driven on or near Fort Sill at 5pm, you may have noticed something out of the ordinary. 

Off course that is only if you are a civilian and have never experienced the Honors Retreat; the daily retiring of the flag ceremony.  'It only takes seconds to honor your Nation's flag', that's the message from MG Mark McDonald as he asks motorists on Fort Sill to stop their cars when they hear the bugler play the retreat.
