3rd Infantry Regiment | Honour Guard #35218157
Description
The United States Army was given the honour of guarding the Tomb of the Unknown Soldier in 1926, as the Army is the senior of the United States military services. Prior to March 25, 1926, there were no military guards posted at the Tomb. In fact, after the internment of the World War I Unknown Soldier on November 11, 1921, the Tomb remained unguarded until November 17, 1925, when a civilian guard would be present only during the day. On July 2, 1937, the guard was increased in size, and ordered to begin 24 hour shifts. Both of these documents are the foundation of the Guards existing orders and mission. The mission of the Guard of Honour, Tomb of the Unknown Soldier is as follows: - Responsible for maintaining the highest standards and traditions of the United States Army and this Nation while keeping a constant vigil at this national shrine. - Prevent any desecration or disrespect directed toward the Tomb of the Unknown Soldier.
