Sihks are good people. Tough warriors. Anti Islamic. What’s not to like about them?

Yes, but he’s putting his religion/customs ahead of duty. I am sure there is somebody else who would wear the regulation uniform but is not a guardsman because of this Sikh.

They are good guys. Had a Sihk doctor when I lived in the UK. He was a sweetheart.

Indeed. The Sikhs have a long history and tradition of service to the Crown. I’m fine with it.

Concerning the turban...

Over the ears, calm your fears, ears showing, danger growing...

Winston Churchill on Sihks and tubins:

"...British people are highly indebted and obliged to Sikhs for a long time. I know that within this century we needed their help twice and they did help us very well. As a result of their timely help, we are today able to live with honour, dignity, and independence. In the war, they fought and died for us, wearing the turbans. At that time we were not adamant that they should wear safety helmets because we knew that they are not going to wear them anyways and we would be deprived of their help. At that time due to our miserable and poor situation, we did not force it on them to wear safety helmets, why should we force it now? Rather, we should now respect their traditions and by granting this legitimate concession, win their applaud."

I’m with you. We should have raised a Sikh regiment in the wake of 9/11, similar to the Gurkhas. I’ve been saying that for about a decade.
