- The Changing of the Guard Ritual is an elaborate ritual that occurs at the Tomb of the Unknown Soldier and is one of the most popular attractions in Arlington National Cemetery. During The Changing of the Guard Ritual an impeccably uniformed relief commander conducts a detailed white-glove inspection of the incoming Sentinel's weapon, carefully checking each part of the fully functional M14 rifle once.
The precision is actually utter and total respect for those that have a permanent residence at the Tomb. You often hear of a soldier that has passed during combat "giving his all for this great nation". These soldiers buried here also gave there identity. Take notice the guards have no name plates. They are there to guard. Not to have recognition other than "The Guard". /Salute USMC
Guards also do not wear rank on their uniform as they cannot outrank the unknown soldiers, and we don't know what rank they were. All the unknown soldiers have been awarded the Medal of Honor, the highest medal one can receive, so tomb guards can wear any medals they have earned as they will not out medal the unknowns....truly inspiring!
Holy cow!! And if you don't focus on the detail, it looks like they're not paying attention... until after further review, you realize she is intently inspecting this rifle to every detail, not just going through a rhythm routine! Very intense!!
Me encanta, un gran pais, por el respeto que tienen a su país y a su bandera
I love with a passion to watch this...i just cant figure why..i am an artist and dont care for rules ...maybe because its the unattainable...the precious precision...the clean lines... the tone...the absolute reverence...the beautiful color..the respect..and the determination to achieve perfection...
You are correct. Absolute precision. As close to perfect as can humanly be obtained.

How many female tomb guards have there been? (including the one in this video)
DukeofColumbia she is the 4th and she was recently discharged honorably from the Army. Between the 3rd female sentinel and her there was approximately 20 years difference.
Wait, Sgt hanks retired from the army? I thought she just finished her time at the tomb. Regardless I hope she enjoys it
@@michaelz7683 She didn't retire. She is now a 2LT.
As of 2021, there are five female Badge holders, including the first female Sergeant of the Guard. A sixth is currently in training.
too many! not to many female soldiers in the unknown soldier tomb...
What is a circus?

What the fuck does political leaning have anything to do with being a guard?
