About the Marine Corps Color Guard
Citizens and community organizations can request ceremonial support- such as a color guard, marching units, drill teams, casket teams, firing details, or salute batteries- from the Marine Corps for participation in events. The Color Guard is a four-person formation of Color Guard Marines in appropriate military uniform. They act as a Color Guard, posting and retiring the flag and rendering to it the proper customs and courtesies. This honored traditional detail adds dignity to any military-related activity while showing respect to our Nation and those who have served it. During ceremonies, the Color Guard presents the flags of the United States and that of the Marine Corps, and is flanked by two rifle-bearers. A salute is rendered by dipping the Marine Corps flag while holding the National Ensign high.
The Public Affairs offices at Marine Corps installations provide the representatives of requesting organizations with liaison to numerous color guards across the country to coordinate support for their event. | |
