Sentries for Unknown Soldier

I think that having a tomb for an unknown soldier is a fantastic idea. Long long overdue. I have visited tombs to unknowns in other countries, and have always been extremely moved by the reverence these memorials are held in. It is incredibly moving to think of a soldier who gave their life for their country, to die unknown.

Every other tomb to an unknown that I have visited has a 24 hour sentry on it. Will our unknown soldier be given the same honour?
