Military bugler's tune (4)

I believe the answer is:

taps

(Other definitions for taps that I've seen before include "Uses listening devices" , "Exploits" , "Strikes lightly; eavesdropping devices" , "Military signal and faucets" , "Knocks lightly on the faucets" .)

I've seen this clue in the Newsday.
