| Milforum's Bouncer | Navy Boy is it an honour guard or a colour guard that you're asking about? As with most things this can be a generic term. Where is your question coming from as in context?

| Milforum's Bouncer | Well without a context all I can tell you is the only honour guard I can remember hearing about is the one at the tomb of the unknown soldier in Arlington. Maybe someone else can help more. |

| Nuclear Duck Hunter | An honor guard can be a select team from a police department, fire department, any armed service, even the border patrol or INS has a team. They are sometimes called color guards as well. A guard can be posted for duties such as standing "guard" for a person in the particular service who is killed in the line of duty until final graveside services. I have even heard of guards being posted for a medal of honor awardee who is in a funeral home for viewing. |
