  • Changing of the guard in Arlington National Cemetery at The Tomb of the Unknown Soldier. First day the weather was raining and the soldiers still marched on. Second day was oppressive with temperatures soaring up to 100 degrees and these soldiers still marched on. Impressive no weather stops them from marching on.

      @@qlime2892 Just watched clips from the Kremlin Changing of the Guard. That’s quite a show! But to be honest, I think Tomb of the Unknown Soldier just looks more badass. Its all serious, inspections of the weapons, inspection of the uniform, all robotic. It’s not meant to be a celebration and all showoffy with goose stepping and horses and sword and gun spinning. But that’s cool too.

    This is difficult for me to watch, while I am sleepy here at bedtime. That is because I would not want to feel sleepy while having to make it through a shift of sentinel duty. The concentration involved would be as difficult as driving a car while sleepy.

      When it rains, they do not inspect the rifle as there is a sharp bayonet at the end, and with all the flips, twists, and turns, they do not want to risk it slipping from the RCs hand and injuring the sentinel.

    I love the military and I have tons of respect for these guys and how they honor these men but after I learned who one of the guards are i think they need to personal background checks.
    I'm pretty sure you filmed this while he was a guard too. He got my niece, who was 17 at the time, to join the Marines and they are now serving in Virginia for 3 years, a long way from any family, and as soon as they got to Virginia my niece found out he was cheating.
