Just curious - was it played for each of the students killed in the bonfire tragedy or once for all of them ????

I believe once for all of them, that's how I understand the Silver Taps ceremony to work. But I need some Former Students to help me here.

Like Quidam said, I'm pretty sure it was once for all of them.
It was a little before my time as a student, though, so I'm not completely sure.
CGSC Lobotomy would know for sure.

Only one Silver Taps ceremony is held per month (if needed).
That singular ceremony is a tribute to all current students who have passed during the previous month.
Individual Taps ceremonies aren't held.
The same held true when we lost the Bonfire Twelve--one Silver Taps ceremony was held in December '99.
