When is taps now played?

Taps now is played by the military at burial and memorial services, to accompany the lowering of the flag and to signal the "lights out" command at day's end. Take out lowering of the flag and this is correct. Retreat is played for the lowering of the flag. Most military bases I've been on play TAPS at 2200 HOURS(10pm).
