I couldn't find a thread on this. So here we go. Primarily post videos of Changing of the Guard in various countries. Also post pics or other info if you want to. :thumb:
Guard Mounting - Wikipedia, the free encyclopediaGuard Mounting, or Changing the Guard, refers to a formal ceremony in which sentries providing ceremonial guard duties at important institutions are relieved by a new batch of sentries. The ceremonies are often elaborate and precisely choreographed. They originated with peacetime and battlefield military drills introduced to enhance unit cohesion and effectiveness in the seventeenth century.
