King's Guard don't play when it comes to entering their box. Many don't seem to realize the Guards are active soldiers on duty protecting the area. Entering the space leads to soldiers shouting or using their horse to enforce it. History of the King's Guard: Part of the Household Cavalry, they perform ceremonial duties for the British monarch at sites like Horse Guards Parade in London. Roots trace to royal bodyguard traditions. They conduct mounted sentry duty, parades, and state occasions while remaining operational military units. Famous for discipline, bearskin helmets (Foot Guards) or helmets with plumes, and red tunics. Viral videos show them warning tourists. (Note: Not to be confused with the fictional Kingsguard from Game of Thrones.)

#WATCH | Outgoing CDS General Anil Chauhan says, "It's a matter of great honour for me to superannuate with a tri-services guard of honour. I thank the three services and Headquarters IDS for it. With the conclusion of the guard of honour, I bid farewell to my colleagues in uniform, comrades in arms forever. I just laid the wreath at the War Memorial for the last time in uniform, as a humble tribute to those who laid down their lives in the line of duty. After the wreath laying, I was welcomed by the friends, relatives and well-wishers. This is symbolic of my transition from uniform to civilian life. I had a very satisfying and excellent tenure."
