I’m thankfully surprised I couldn’t find any vidoes of a ‘major disturbance’.

    This is greatness. I love they tell the crowd to quiet down.

    That Corporal is the best, telling that snotty teacher about the dress code. His up-down of those kids is classic.

    It is such an incredible honor to guard the Tomb of the Unknown Soldier, I'm glad they enforce the decorum those Unknown Soldiers deserve.

    I viewed the Changing of the Guard two years ago. When the new guard came out, I noticed that it looked like he had a loose cleat on his shoe, which was sticking out. The guards went through the whole ceremony. A sergeant did the whole up-down eyeballing of the new and old guard. Apparently he spotted the loose cleat and then somehow communicated to both guards that the whole thing was off and the new guard departed and the old guard remained on the walk. They conducted the ceremony as though it was completely normal. The crowd noticed that no change had occured and this caused a commotion in the crowd, which required the guard to stop and reprimand the crowd about noise.
