There are no Corporals in the Foot Guards, these are replaced by Lance-Corporals, Lance-Sergeant being the rank above this.
That's why there are no guardsmen with only 1 chevron. The guards are 'special', the story goes that Queen Victoria didn't want 'her own guards' to be seen with only 1 stripe.
Where's the guys bayonets ???

Lance-Sergeants have 3 white stripes on their red tunics, while full Sergeants have 3 gold stripes.
Not too sure about chevrons on their great coats, but I'm guessing it's 3 stripes.

Sergeants don't have fixed bayonets, or so I have noted in observation.
