7 The crowd stood as the Changing of the Guard was announced. An officer appeared. He inspected the uniform and rifle of the new guard. With a loud tap of her heels, Sergeant Heather Lynn Johnson began pacing in the same way as the first guard. The officer and the first guard then marched away. The ceremony had ended. The guards hadnt spoken a word.
8 How did she get to be a part of the honor guard? Kate rushed to ask Ling.
9 The same way as any of the soldiers who guard the Unknowns, Ling said. She went through the same training that all the honor guards did. I read that she received a perfect score on her exam.
10 Training and exams? Ben said. What does an honor guard need to be able to do?
11 Ling replied, Besides being able to march, the guard members must know the cemetery history. They must be able to give the exact location of nearly two hundred burial plots.
12 Working on my questions for the show is enough for me, Ben joked, d better start thinking about tomorrows taping at the Washington Monument.
