A quick definition of firing squad:

Firing Squad: A group of people who shoot a person who has been sentenced to death with powerful guns from a short distance all at the same time. It can also refer to a group of soldiers who fire guns as a salute during a funeral.

A more thorough explanation:

A firing squad is a group of people who are assembled to carry out a capital punishment sentence by shooting the prisoner with high-powered rifles at the same time from a short distance. This method of execution is used in some countries, although it is becoming less common.

For example, in the United States, the state of Utah still allows for execution by firing squad if lethal injection is not available or is deemed unconstitutional. In other countries, such as China and North Korea, firing squads are still used as a method of execution.

Additionally, a firing squad can also refer to a military detachment that fires a salute during a burial ceremony for a person being honored. This is a way to pay respect and honor the deceased.

Overall, the term firing squad refers to a group of people who are responsible for carrying out a specific task, whether it be a form of execution or a way to pay tribute to someone who has passed away.
