----------Honor Guard's in Training----------
Honor Guard's in Training are basically a brand new recruit. They are required to attend a minimum of 5 training's held by their Unit Commander. They are also required to do 1 in-class training, but also have to have the approval of the Unit Commander. Once they have achieved these requirements they will preform their Graduation Test in-front of the Inspecting officer, he will have the verdict if the class passes or fails.
----------Activity----------
Once you have joined Honor Guard you are requested to be on once a day is possible, if you cannot come one once a day inform the Inspecting Officer or your Unit Commander, and inform them of the days you can get on. You are required to report in at Howze on 3 different days. The week ranges from Monday-Sunday. Failure to report in once will make you receive a strike, once receiving 3 strikes you are expelled from Honor Guard. During the time you check in you will be required to stand post for at least 1 hour, or if you attend a Raid that is also considered checking in.
Officers- Officer activity is a little different from the enlisted, as you are a higher rank you have more responsibility. You will check in with me personally at least 3 times a week. During those check ins you will be given your daily or weekly tasks. Please note that if you are an officer and join Honor Guard you will be considered an Enlisted by those above you in Honor Guard.
----------Ranking System----------
The Honor Guard ranking system bases itself off of its own ranks. Example: if you are in Honor Guard and are on the Silent Drill team as a Captain but the Unit commander is a Lieutenant you treat him like he is a higher ranked officer.You are required to be at least the designated ranks to join that specific position.
Silent Drill Team Ranks: Sergeant or higher
Ceremonial Guard Ranks: Sergeant or higher
Presidential Guard Ranks: Master Sergeant or higher
-These positions require you to have been an active member of Honor Guard for 2 weeks, or have been appointed by the General of the Army or higher-
Unit Commander's Ranks: 2nd Lieutenant or higher
Inspecting Officer Ranks: Lieutenant Colonel or higher
----------Unit Non-Commissioned Officers----------
Unit NCO's are basically the 2nd in command for that unit. They are the best of the best for that unit and have proven it to the Unit Commander and the Inspecting Officer. The only way to become a Unit NCO is having the Unit Commander recognize you, and then having it approved by the Inspecting officer through a live demonstration of you commanding your unit.
----------Honor Guard Unit ID Number----------
At any given time a OFFICER may ask for your Unit ID, if such you are required to say this phrase, "This Soilder/Officer's ID number is (YOUR ID NUMBER), My united states military rank is (YOUR USM RANK), and my Unit Commander is (YOUR UNITS COMMANDER).
If you refuse to give your ID or fail to say this phrase properly it will result in a possible suspension. Once you join Honor Guard and attend your first training you will be given your unit ID by your Unit Commander, once you transfer you will be given a new Unit ID. If a Enlisted asks for your ID Number regardless of rank you may deny them that information.
----------How to be Promoted in USHG----------
There are two ways to be promoted in USHG, one is through activity and loyalty. The second is that you are disciplined and have proven to be an effective leader.
