Famous bodyguards and bodyguarding agencies

In the late twentieth and early twenty-first centuries, most bodyguards are former or current police officers, or sometimes former military or other government agency personnel. E.g., former members of the Special Air Service often go in close-protection after retirement, since many are given specialised training in the field during their time in the regiment.

One well-known public agency that provides bodyguard services is the United States Secret Service which safeguards the lives of the President, his family, and other executive officials.

Another agency, the U.S. State Department's Bureau of Diplomatic Security, is responsible for protecting U.S. missions and their personnel overseas, as well as selected dignitaries in the U.S., including the U.S. Ambassador to the United Nations, the Secretary of State, and visiting foreign dignitaries below heads-of-state level.

Whilst the US Secret Service's close-protection role is its most visible, its historic role as agents of the United States Treasury makes it unusual internationally as usually "official" bodyguards are part of general police forces. A significant example is the Royalty and Diplomatic Protection Department of the Metropolitan Police, which is responsible for the security of the Sovereign of the United Kingdom.

In India NSG (National Security Guards), an organisation particularly trained in anti-terrorist activities, also provides Body Guards for the VVIPs. The Organisation functions under the Ministry of Home Affairs, Govt. of India. In 1984 Indian Prime Minister Indira Gandhi was assassinated by two of her security guards, reportedly chosen as personal bodyguards.

First of all, it's bodyguard. You spelled it wrong. You do get a gun and hang with famous people. But your main job is to protect them from the papparozzi and crowds of people. You wear an earpiece like the secret service. You need experience to protect them, like as a bouncer for nightclubs. They're not going to accept a young rookie like you. I think you're crazy.

you have to apply for a license to have a gun and obviously you can only use it for the right purposes but as for hanging out with celebrities you have to act professional..its isnt about hanging out it is about protecting that particular person

It's not fun and games, you literally have to take a bullet for the person you are protecting.It is not for everyone.
