I would doubt a member of the honor guard would succumb to passing out via locked knees. That is so drilled in to all military and especially someone serving on honor guard, I doubt that was the reason.
Agreed, but only if this was someone with a lot of experience. It is possible (albeit remotely) that this person was fairly new and was put there because of fewer experienced members being available around the holidays. I would think this particular detail would be a good one to introduce newer members without the pressures of a presidential detail or a death of someone active and high-ranking in the govt. Kind of like a new 3rd infantry tomb guard walking at night when nobody is there to see them (other than their trainers), before being moved to daytime walks in peak tourist season.

Right. Not a lot of discernment taking place here anon.
Young strong healthy people suddenly falling out = poisonous pseudovax related most likely, everything else secondary
Fat boy cops, not military professional honor guard.
