I just got back from the Capitol and was lucky enough

to have been there when the switch was made. Not a single peep from anyone while paying their respects, and I am really glad that I had the opportunity. Not sure what time it was when the picture was taken, but the Navy Sailor looks like the same one that switched out when I was there around 12:15am. We were told that a switch is done every 30 minutes

All in all, it was about 2 1/2 hours of waiting and it wasn't too cold.
God Bless 41
