The first grouping we have here are photos of a significant part of history. The soldiers getting ready for deployment are from the Army Old Guard. The soldier on the left it knifely equipped and ready for bear! The trooper in the center is wearing a desert tan patch, the first of it's kind with a scroll of the Old Guard. These folks don't only patrol in Washington D.C.! The well equipped soldier on the right has a folding stock entry shotgun equipped with a bayonet lug, sweet!
