I'm too lazy for a unit with both ceremonial and combat responsibilities! One of my roommates in the U.S. Army, years ago, had spent 3 years in the Old Guard in Washington D.C. He had to relearn normal drill and ceremony since the Guard has special ways of doing everything. Changing of the Guard at the Tomb of the Unknown Soldier.
