Are there remains in the tomb of the unknown soldier?
No - many countries have a 'tomb of the unknown soldier'. It's simply a memorial where anyone can go to pay their respects to a fallen service person - regardless of their rank. Many soldiers killed on the field of battle were never brought back to the country of their birth. The tomb of the unknown soldier provides a place where families can pay their respects to their dead relative.
Who started the Unknown Soldier Monument tradition?
In world war 2 a lot of soldiers were burned, lost in action or found in pieces so they were unrecognizable to anybody since they didn't have DNA testing back then. So instead of putting them in different places they took all the unrecognizable soldiers and created a single tomb called the tomb of the unknown soldier because all the soldiers are unknown.
Why is the guards to the tomb of the unknown soldier important?
Honor guard for the fallen is a very old tradition present in many cultures. The purpose is to show that the living remember those who have died and respect them. Guards are typically assigned to people of importance, and so guarding a place of burial demonstrates how important the deceased is. The Honor Guard consists of soldiers because the Unknown is also a soldier, and because guard duty has traditionally been done by the military. The Tomb of The Unknown Soldier came to be after WWI when great numbers of men were killed and it was not always possible to identify and properly bury them all. One such soldier was chosen and laid to rest in the Tomb. He could be anyone, and therefore he is everyone. This also means the Honor Guard is for all who gave their lives in the service.
