1. Guardsman

   Guardsman is a rank used instead of Private in some military units that serve as the official bodyguard of a sovereign or head of state. It is also used as a generic term for any member of a Guards unit of any rank. The British Army's Foot Guards Regiments have used the rank since 1920, when it was adopted instead of Private. In the Canadian Forces, the rank is used by Privates in the Governor General's Foot Guards and the Canadian Grenadier Guards. The rank is considered non-gender specific and therefore applies equally to female soldiers. The rank badge is identical to that of Private, a single chevron. Guards units in Scandinavia all use the rank. This includes the Danish Army's Gardehusarregimentet and Den Kongelige Livgarde, the Norwegian Army's Hans Majestet Kongens Garde, and the Swedish Army's Livgardet. In the Singapore Armed Forces, the rank is used by the elite Singapore Guards. In the Indian Army the rank is used by the elite Brigade of the Guards. It is also used to refer to members of the National Guard of the United States, a US military reserve force.

Examples of guardsman in a Sentence

1. Thomas Huxley:

   Science is nothing but trained and organized common sense, differing from the latter only as a veteran may differ from a raw recruit and its methods differ from those of common sense only as far as the guardsman's cut and thrust differ from the manner in which a savage wields his club.

2. Greg Abbott:

   Our hearts are heavy at the news of the tragic death of a Texas Guardsman stationed at the border as part of Operation Lone Star. We grieve for the soldier who died and lift their family and loved ones up in prayer, the Texas National Guard plays an important role in our efforts to keep communities safe and we are grateful for their courage and commitment. The Texas Rangers will conduct a thorough investigation into this tragedy and the Texas Military Department is taking action to ensure such loss of life never happens again.
