Don’t you just love a person in a uniform? For centuries a uniform has set a person apart, making that person easily identifiable as part of a specific group. But how closely have you looked at the uniform?
Just a casual glance that quickly tells you that person is probably a pilot, a sailor, a doctor?
Or do you look more closely and can identify the airline, or rank or …you get the idea.
OR are you really detailed oriented. For example, could you pick out a Coldstream Guard uniform from an Irish Guard uniform?
Let’s check out your attention to detail (and your memory as I am sure you have seen photographs of these uniforms many times).
We are visiting royal residences to have a look at the uniforms of the guards who stand on duty outside the gates. All residences are of present day royalty.
Let’s see how you do. Have fun. Here is your skill testing question.

Which royal residence does this officer guard?

Are you sure?
Photo #3
Which royal residence does he guard?
Well, how do you think you did? Could you identify which country we were in? which royal residences we were standing outside of when we took these photographs?
(No, this is not another guard for you to identify. That’s me!)
