[QUOTE="Snattlerake, post: 3211100, member: 44288"] Kiwi. It has melted onto the mat and the concrete. Note the two dark spots at the bottom left of the mat. Those two areas are where every inspection of the guard has been for decades. Note also the parallel and right angle lines next to the mat. That is where the changed guard and Sgt of the guard walk. The right angle lines from the north end of the mat to the guard house top right is where they walk to their guard house. [ATTACH=full]133138[/ATTACH][ATTACH=full]133139[/ATTACH] [ATTACH=full]133140[/ATTACH] The area t the bottom left is where they come out of. The Sgt of the guard comes out first, salutes the tomb, then addresses the crowd. He then salutes the tomb again then turns to the newly presented guard, walks up to him and performs the inspection. If you ever get to Arlington, this is a must see. [MEDIA=youtube]4utXb3auOew[/MEDIA] [/QUOTE]
