The sound of drums and bugles are the stirring sounds of war. The drums' signal a call to arms. Nowadays, we normally only use the stirring sound of drums and bugles (and Bagpipes, too!) ceremonially, not on a modern battlefield (though with some exceptions, such as playing the bagpipes in front of the enemy), as happened in World War II.
A drumhead was when drums were piled up and draped with the regimental colours, and flags, to act as an altar for a church service held in the field.
