The Honour Guard Battalion of the Ministry of Defense of Armenia ({{lang-hy|Հայաստանի Պաշտպանության նախարարության Պատվո պահքի գումարտակը}}) is a military unit of Armed Forces of Armenia that performs protocol tasks for high-ranking officials at the Presidential Palace, the Prime Minister's Residence and the Defense Ministry. The unit is under direct command of the Ministry of Defense of Armenia. Most members of the battalion are graduates of the Vazgen Sargsyan Military University.

Background

The battalion was established on January 18, 1993. The battalion's first major event was the funeral of Monte Melkonian in June 1993. The first official welcoming ceremony that the battalion took part in was for the visit of Russian Defense Minister Pavel Grachev in 1994. The battalion has taken part in the annual military parade in Yerevan in 1996, 1999, 2006, 2011, and 2016.[1] In 2015, the battalion took part in the Moscow Victory Day Parade and was considered by Russian Defense Minister Sergei Shoigu as one of the best marching contingents. Members of the drill team of the battalion has also participated in events involving the Russian 102nd Military Base based in Gyumri.[2][3][4][5][6][7] Since 2018, the battalion has performed guard duty at the Prime Minister's Residence at Baghramyan Avenue.

Requirements

In order to serve in the battalion recruits must have a height of between 180 centimeters (5 ft 9 in) to 187 centimeters (6 ft 1 in). They are also required to maintain good health and have to have a college education (either from the Vazgen Sargsyan Military University or one of the country's universities).

Organizational Structure

  • Honours Company – Consists of 27 soldiers which includes one commander, one color guard, and 24 personnel.
  • Wreath Laying Company – Consists of 2-3 personnel.
  • Drill Team Company

Weapons

  • AK-47 (1991–2008)
  • SKS (2008–Present)

Drill with both of these weapons is completely different, with the biggest difference being seen in how both look when they are in the present arms position (the SKS is kept straight while in this position while the bottom of the AK-47 is kept facing to the left).

Commanders

  • Colonel Ashot Hakobyan (1993–2005)
  • Lieutenant Colonel Vardan Khanferyan (2005–2009)
  • Lieutenant Colonel Sokrat Vardanyan (2009–Present)
