Each branch of the U.S. military has its own honor guard. The Honor guard stationed in Washington, D.C., represents the entire military and the United States as a nation and performs numerous ceremonial functions on behalf of the President of the United States. These units are also not locked into operations in or around national capitals and often travel around the country and the world as needed.
Specific honor guards in the U.S. Military include:
The United States Marine Corps Flag Platoon - This platoon presents the Flag and Marine Corps combat colors to provide appropriate military honor and to show the Marine Corps' illustrious history of operations throughout the Nation's capital region and throughout the United States at ceremonies.
Army Honor Guard (3rd U.S. Infantry) - The regiment holds commemorative events to honor fallen comrades, and holds ceremonies and special events on behalf of the U.S. Army to tell its story to American citizens and the world.
U.S. Naval Ceremonial Guard - The primary mission of the Naval Ceremonial Guard is to represent the President, joint armed forces, the Navy, and public ceremonies in and around the NATION's capital.
Coast Guard Ceremonial Honor Guard -- represents the commander, the Washington Military District, and the U.S. Coast Guard through ceremonial actions held in front of world leaders and dignitaries.
The Canadian Armed Forces honor Guard can be brought in from anywhere in the country to provide protection. Some countries, such as Canada and Australia, have taken a more holistic approach, providing ceremonial escorts for heads of state or dignitaries who need extra security measures beyond ordinary military escorts. In these cases, their armed forces usually take a unit for special training, etc.
In addition to regular sentinel duty at the National War Memorial and Rideau Hall, the ceremonial guards perform regular ceremonies and speeches. These regular duties include the changing of the guard, the governor's examination of the guard, and the colors of the troops.
The British armed forces do not have a dedicated guard of honor. Instead, they rely on units from all three services that are deployed overseas to rotate and share public duties at major historic landmarks across the country - this tradition continues today! Traditionally 5th Infantry Regiment (a part of the army) performs ceremonial roles while Cavalry Regiments use their horses as a symbol for power in military might.
Challenge coins are typically commissioned by superior officers to reward amazing bravery in the line of duty, build team unity and spirit, or express gratitude for service. Since honor guard members often do not receive an additional pay bump like other positions might enjoy; thanking them with these special tokens goes a long way!
