The Guards, a body of some 5500 officers and men whose special task it is to protect the British sovereign are the oldest and perhaps the most unusual military institution in the West. They are not just gorgeously caparisoned performers marching up and down outside the royal palaces in London and Windsor...they are also a highly disciplined and versatile military formation, found wherever the British army is called upon to soldier, from the jungles of Central America to the mean streets of Belfast.
