Changing the guard at the Eternal Flame at the Tomb of the Unknown Soldier. In the solemn ritual of changing sentries at the tomb of the Unknown Soldier, the worked Kremlin step from an extended sock to the ground at a distance of 20 centimeters impresses to perfection. The movement of a straight line in the knee of the leg comes from the thigh, while both the right and left soles of the soldier should fall on the same line. This difficult step has remained since tsarist times. Changing the guard at the post takes place daily every hour from 8 to 20 hours
The Post of Honor Guard at the Eternal Flame at the Tomb of the Unknown Soldier near the walls of the Moscow Kremlin (also known as Post No. 1) is the main guard post in Russia.
It was established and installed at the mausoleum in 1924 after the death of V.I. Lenin. In 1993, by decree of the President of Russia B.N. Yeltsin, Post No. 1 was abolished, and in 1997 it was restored in the Alexander Garden near the Eternal Flame. Guard service is carried out by servicemen of the Presidential Regiment
