Changing of the Guard, Fiji Style

In Fiji, the President is guarded by the Police and the Army. They take it in turns guarding the Presidential Palace and once a month they hand the duty over with a changing of the guard ceremony.

Fiji has a proud military history. Ive served with and helped train some of there troops its a shame though that certain leaders need to poke there noses into the countries political affairs.
