Charge (US Navy, 1940)[1]

Charge is a bugle call that signals the command to execute a cavalry or infantry charge. It is especially associated with the United States Cavalry as a result of its frequent use in Western films.[2] A simple unmistakable call, it was even recognizable by experienced horses.[citation needed]
