Changing of the Guard, Tomb of the Unknown Soldier, Athens Greece

Pulled this footage out of the Athens video recently uploaded. This more complete coverage better describes/shows the sights and sounds of typical maneuvers and guard changing. I've heard, but not verified, that the guards must be 6 feet 4 inches tall to serve in this capacity. Regardless, the ceremony is solemn, impressive, and a very patriotic display for the country of Greece. You could have heard a pin drop during the entire changing ceremony.
