Lot's of rumors about them, but mostly exaggerated. You can find Q&A about them at
http://www.tombguard.org/site.html
The average tour at the Tomb is about a year. There is NO set time for service there. The Sentinels live either in a barracks on Ft. Myer or off base if they like. They do have living quarters under the steps of the amphitheater where they stay during their 24 hour shifts, but when they are off, they are off. And if they are of legal age, they may drink anything they like, except while on duty.
So we are all welcome to buy them whatever beverage they prefer -- and deserve!
