Wasn't TRG in the Old Guard for a time?
Four years. Including two walks at said Tomb.
Ok DUmbasses listen up. There is only ONE person with the authorization to tell them to step off that mat...and it's THE PRESIDENT OF THE UNITED STATES!
The ONLY family those unknown soldiers have are the people guarding them. They gave their life they are "known but only to God" and they deserve everything that's done for them.
And part of what they deserve...is for you to SHUT THE **** UP and let those guards do what they VOLUNTEERED to do. Through hurricanes blizzards and terrorist attacks those guards have never shirked their duty. None of you are worthy of shining their shoes...much less offering an opinion on whether or not they should come in and not do their damn job because of some wind and rain.
The Sentinel's Creed:My dedication to this sacred duty
is total and whole-hearted.
In the responsibility bestowed on me
never will I falter.
And with dignity and perseverance
my standard will remain perfection.
Through the years of diligence and praise
and the discomfort of the elements,
I will walk my tour in humble reverence
to the best of my ability.
It is he who commands the respect I protect,
his bravery that made us so proud.
Surrounded by well meaning crowds by day,
alone in the thoughtful peace of night,
this soldier will in honored glory rest
under my eternal vigilance.
- Simon 1971
Any of you ****tards dissing them for what they are doing...go **** yourselves.
