The Special Republican Guard was controlled by the Special Security Organization and charged with protecting President Saddam Hussein, presidential sites, Baghdad, and responding to any rebellion, coup, or other threat to his power.[1] HistoryIn order to prevent a coup, Saddam Hussein forbade the Special Republican Guard (SRG) from coordinating with other forces, even the normal Republican Guard and no other units were ever allowed near SRG.[3] The Special Republican Guard received better pay and benefits than members of the normal Republican Guard and the regular Iraqi Army. By 2002, there were reportedly 12,000 members of the Special Republican Guard, drawn primarily from clans loyal to Saddam Hussein and his regime. As many as five brigades containing 14 battalions of 1,300-1,500 men each, and also included air defense, armored, and artillery were reported to be in existence at that time. In 2003, the Special Republican Guard was officially dissolved as per CPA Order Number 2 in the wake of the invasion of Iraq by a U.S.-led international coalition. [4]Former members of the Special Republican Guard were later suspected of carrying out insurgent attacks on coalition forces in Iraq after the invasion, but also seemed to form the cadre around which the various Sons of Iraq or Anbar Awakening home guard militias, funded, trained, equipped and operated alongside American forces were composed of. StructureThe SRG had 13 or 14 battalions and ranged in troop strength from 15,000[2] to 26,000.[5] This may have fallen to only 12,000 by 2002.[1]
