All others are Color Guard. The primary responsibility of the Honor Guard is to participate in recital of the rosary, wake, and burial of deceased members. This, of course, is at the request of the deceased Sir Knight's family. The Corps basically follows a Naval theme with ranks and insignia. Note that the chapeaux, which are never called hats, are similar to the old naval uniforms.
Cape colors are an indication of rank.
Vice Supreme Masters wear blue capes and chapeaux. Masters wear gold capes and chapeaux. Commanders wear purple capes and chapeaux. Other Color Corps Members wear red capes and chapeaux. Former Vice Supreme Masters, Former District Marshals, and Past Faithful Navigators are all permitted to wear their respective capes and chapeaux when they finish their term of office.
