"Since April 6, 1948, Tomb Sentinels from the Army's 3rd Infantry Regiment's "The Old Guard"have guarded the Tomb for 24 hours a day, 365 days a year regardless of the weather."
Just a reminder that The Old Guard never ceases its duty. I have been there a few times, including in a miserable downpour, and the respect never stops. Major snow storm hitting the East Coast but The Old Guard continues. In Marinesque form they even take perverse pride in the worst weather. Impressive.
