    The Colonial Williamsburg Fife and Drum Corps marches during The Tactical Air Command's performance of its "TAC Tattoo" at Langley Air Force Base. Initiated by TAC commander Gen. Robert D. Russ in 1987, the tattoo is a modern version of the 300-year-old military tradition of music and precision drill teams. It traces the history of aviation and how many military airplanes of today had their beginnings at Langley Air Force Base, the oldest continuously operating base in the United States. The term tattoo evolved from Dutch marching words that were misunderstood by the British. (1989)
