Military honours for the inaugural visit of the Prime Minister of the United Kingdom of Great Britain and Northern Ireland, Rishi Sunak, to Chancellor Olaf Scholz in the Federal Chancellery in Berlin. The honorary company is provided by the 4th company (marines) of the guard battalion. The honor formation is led by Ms. Kapitanleutnant (Captain) Kruggel. The Bundeswehr Staff Music Corps is playing under the direction of Captain Holzschuh. Because of its history as a seafaring nation, the BMVg protocol had decided that the honorary company would wear a naval uniform. That's why the Navy's presentation march, which is rarely heard in Berlin, is played when the honorary formation is marched off. Another special feature is that the Inspector General, General Carsten Breuer, is in the delegation. The last time that an inspector general was in the delegation was during the state visit of the Spanish royal couple (https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=ur7xJeUDSC0 and https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=prlzhc9gmqE ). The video shows the approach to the post of honor, the entry of the honor formation, the greeting of the Chancellor by the guard battalion, the arrival of the guest, the welcome of the delegations, the national anthems, the marching off of the honor formation and the march out of the honor formation.
