Hmm...well, that's a pretty broad question. For starters, you need people! You need someone to choreograph as well - hopefully someone with experience. As far as equipment, you need flag poles and flag "silks" (the actual flags) - poles can vary in length from 5 to 6 feet (6-footers are the most common) and flags are usually half the length of the pole and roughly 2/3 as long (for example, flags for 6' poles are typically 3'x5'). You'll probably also want costumes, or some uniform look. And then you need some music! If you are competing, you will have to get clearance to use it. And you'll probably need money. That's the basics - anything else, you can probably find out at wgi.org or from your local guard circuit. Hope that was the answer you were looking for?

Depending on how far back you go, they are the same thing - color guard has its origins in the military, literally being there to guard the "colors" (aka the flag). Over time it evolved, and you have the modern color guard activity associated with marching bands and winterguards. However, as far as the military is concerned, it IS still called color guard - honor guard is a synonym, most likely used to avoid confusion.
