Reveille is a bugle call most often associated with the U.S. military, where it is used to wake up military personnel at sunrise. The name is taken from "réveillé" (or "réveil"), the French word for "wake up", as stated by the Reveille article at The Other Wiki.
In fiction, Reveille is often used to wake up a character, whether they are in the military or at summer camp. If Played for Laughs, the melody may be played on an instrument other than the bugle.

In Sound of the Sky, this is used to wake up the soldiers of the clocktower fortress (all five of them) and the particular tune (Amazing Freaking Grace) they use is an important plot point by having Kanata, The Protagonist want to learn how to play it properly and use the training for it to setup plots.

In the Looney Tunes short Forward March Hare, Bugs Bunny (accidentally) gets drafted into the Army. After a particularly grueling hike, Bugs goes to sleep for the night, only to be quickly awoken by Reveille. Bugs decides he's gonna "moider that bugler", and exacts revenge... on a vinyl record player.

The Camp Lazlo episode "Beany Weenies" opens with Miss Mucus performing a Reveille to wake up Acorn Flats. Meanwhile at Camp Kidney, Slinkman weakly blows his bugle and Edward tries to to throw his alarm clock at him, which causes a Disaster Dominoes incident that leads to Mucus' watchtower getting destroyed with her inside it, leading her to plot to get the camp shut down.
A Reveille is heard at the start of the theme song.

In Scooby-Doo and the Ghoul School, the Calloway cadets have what is known as a Roving Reveille Robot, which is basically a bugle on tank wheels that rolls around while playing Reveille to wake up the cadets.

This Is The Army. In the early portion of the film, which takes place during World War I, Reveille is blown by an actual bugler magnified through a giant megaphone so the whole camp can here. During the World War II section of the film it's played from a recording through a PA system.

Reveille is featured in the boot camp act of the film Full Metal Jacket. Just in case any of the privates haven't woken up at the sound of the bugle, though, Gunnery Seargent Hartman immediately storms into the barracks and starts banging a trash can with his baton.

Appears as a plot point in one of the McAuslan-stories. The narrator mentions that reveille is usually played by a lone bugler, but on Friday mornings, reveille is played by the regiment's massed pipes and drums. The reveille always, for reasons of carefully calculated cheeky insubordination, always begins just outside the Bachelor Officer's Quarters. Being hit with "Johnnie Cope" at full blast from five feet away at 6 a.m. causes one of the narrator's messmates to assume that the Americans have dropped the Bomb.

On M*A*S*H, whenever Frank Burns is in charge of the camp he insists on a full morning Roll Call including Reveille. Radar is usually saddled with bugle duty; sometimes he's terrible at it and other times he's OK. One of the first times they did it, they played a record over the P.A system. The record got stuck and repeated the first phrase over and over and over again.

In Red vs. Blue, when Sarge and Caboose go to Battle Creek, both sides (red and blue) completely wipe each other out... until "Reveille" plays and suddenly everyone is back up and ready for another round of pointless fighting. This is a Mythology Gag to what a Halo multiplayer game would look like to an actual player.

In Cars, Sarge wakes up every morning with a bugle call. This is usually followed by Fillmore playing a Jimi Hendrix rendition of "The Star-Spangled Banner", leading to this exchange:

In Jarhead Swofford is told by a sergeant to come next day and audition for the bugle corps (it's actually a sniper squad). When he shows up, his sergeant is 'shocked' that he doesn't have a bugle, and orders him to play Reveille with his mouth- followed by Stevie Wonder's "You Are the Sunshine of My Life".
