Elite military unit initially entrusted with guarding the life of the now decesaed Iraqi dictator Saddam Hussein and mostly composed of Saddam's loyal fellow Sunni tribesmen. Evantually, it was expanded and had full fledged infantry and artillery divisions attached to it. During the First Gulf War, it put up a ferocious and determined fight in the face of a massive and all but unstoppable U.S military advance into Iraqi occupied Kuwait, despite being severely outnumbered and outgunned. During the Second Gulf War, however, most members of this elite military force opted to withdraw and melt into the civilian population rather than spned their lives in a futile and suicidal effort to halt the inexorable U.S advance into Baghdad. Although the Republican Gurad was formally disbanded in 2003 by order of the occupying American authorities, many former Republcian Guard members are part of an ongoing insurgency directed at the U.S and its allies in the current Iraqi government, often putting their honed combat skills to good use against unfortunate American soldiers.
A hardened veteran, the former Republican Guard commando easily slew the U.S Marines entrusted with guarding their base from insurgent attacks.

In American football the offensive guard is one of the down linemen whose job is to keep the defense away from the quarterback, or to open a hole in the defensive line for a running back to run through. A "pulling guard" is when the guard actually pulls back away from the line and runs around the end, trying to block the defense in front of a running back.

I had this dream where I boxed Mohammad Ali; sure glad I had my dream guards on to protect my teeth.
