Reveille, from the French réveiller (“to wake up”), originated in 17th–18th century European armies as a drum or bugle signal to rouse troops at dawn. Formalized in the British and later U.S. military, it marked the start of the duty day, prompting soldiers to rise, dress, and assemble. The traditional U.S. bugle call, composed around 1812, features a lively, ascending melody played at first light (typically 5–6 AM). In barracks and bases, it remains a daily ritual, symbolizing discipline, readiness, and unity—often followed by flag-raising and morning formation.

Survival training prepares cadets for those moments—teaching them how to navigate unknown terrain, sustain themselves with limited resources, and always stay mission-ready.

Remember how good National Geographic used to be? When I was a kid happening on a stack of these was like finding actual treasure. I used to read my grandpa's old ones, until one year I got a subscription for Christmas. It was like having the whole world at my fingertips. pic.twitter.com/RyDtDuxbnN

Professor Karl Siebert, who teaches FDSC 4300, The Science and Technology of Beer, demonstrates how to properly pour a beer and discusses the sensory experience of beer appreciation. In a recent study, Siebert identified the key component in a ‘perfect’ head of beer: a barley protein known as Lipid Transport Protein 1 or LPT1.
