In the 17th century, the call was believed to be originally part of a more elaborate routine, also know as 'Tattoo' in the British Army. Soldiers first used this to tell time during the day by playing different notes/songs. The “first post” was sounded when officers started his rounds as a drum played. The drum beats told off-duty soldiers that it was time for them to rest, and if the soldiers were in town, the beats would tell them it was time to leave the pubs. Another trumpet call was played when the officer’s party completed its rounds, meaning reach the “last post”. This was a signal that the night sentries were alert at their posts and gave their last warning to the other soldiers.
It was not until the mid-1800s that it changed its use and significance.

The Last Post is played in Remembrance of battle wars. It is played on events like ANZAC and Remembrance Day and played in funerals and memorials of those who lost their lives to their country. The Last Post has changed however, in both how and when it was originally played.
They are usually played while or before the moment of silence is happening.
