There was an excellent PBS documentary over the weekend on what is pictured in the 1st post.
Just what all is involved in the prep and training for that ceremony.
It may be searchable if you have PBS Passport.

The Old Guard is the worst Job In the U.S. Army Infantry, especially casket detail, Not that tomb Guard is any better, changing your Blues Twice Daily. I spent time In the S-3 (operations) shop In the Old Guard Liaison NCO(aka Ammo and Land Management NCO stateside) That Job was a headache in itself. I was actually glad to be working behind the scenes, I wore My Dress Blues once while assigned there In the 1980s. I volunteered for recruiter to get the heck out of there. Most do about 3 years and Can't wait to get to a real Infantry Unit again. Many Volunteer In advanced Infantry Training and think it's going to be a cake walk and don't realize it's no cake walk They have all those extra duties Plus they still go to the field to train

Memorial Day weekend is the worst, especially if You Have to work In the Garden (cemetery) Putting out flags and now today removing them. Best Job was to get assigned to White House Door Guard if in Blues or working In the Battalion S shops as You Not dressing in your Blues very often if at all

Cub Cadet is a premium line of outdoor power equipment, established in 1961 as part of International Harvester. During the 1960s, IH initiated an entirely new line of lawn and garden equipment aimed at the owners rural homes with large yards and private gardens. There were a wide variety of Cub Cadet branded and after-market attachments available; including mowers, blades, snow blowers, front loaders, plows, carts, etc. Cub Cadet advertising at that time harped on their thorough testing by "boys - acknowledged by many as the world's worst destructive force!". Cub Cadets became known for their dependability and rugged construction.

MTD Products, Inc. of Cleveland, Ohio purchased the Cub Cadet brand from International Harvester in 1981. Cub Cadet was held as a wholly owned subsidiary for many years following this acquisition, which allowed them to operate independently. Recently, MTD has taken a more aggressive role and integrated Cub Cadet into its other lines of power equipment.
