The Tomb of the Unknown Soldiers is a special memorial gravesite for soldiers who’s bodies could not be identified in any way. There are a lot of rules around conduct around the tomb, such as always maintaining a solemn silence, and the specific ways the guards are to carry out their duties. Guards never display their rank, as to never potentially outrank someone buried in the tomb and are given special permissions to reprimand anyone civilian or military regardless or rank who breaks the rules and can very quickly escalate if the rules are not followed. The guards are alao there all day, every day, regardless of weather.
Its all very “Buckingham palace guards” pomp and circumstance that is something done out of tradition and taken very seriously from the people involved.
Kegsbreath was having a grand old time laughing and cavorting near the tomb and got the deservedly so reprimand from the guard of the tomb.
