The Red Guard of Senegal (French: Garde Rouge du Sénégal), officially known as the Presidential Guard Legion[1] (French: f; LGP) is a unit of the Senegalese Gendarmerie that is responsible for presidential security. It also has ceremonial duties and assists in general policing. It is very similar in concept to the French Republican Guard, with which it is officially twinned. The Red Guard is the direct descendant of a French colonial Spahi detachment sent to Senegal in 1845.
