I work as a security Gaurd, though the dog isn't a must, it'll make me feel more comfortable on night shifts. And yes, I am familier with how to take care of one, I had one for 13 years, but I was a child. I requested a military dog because of thier loyalty and obedience.

Let me correct myself. I do work for the military. I am Artillery Gaurds officer. Sr. Lieutenant. And No, a retired one won't do.

I would look at getting a dog trained for personal protection. Sounds more like what you're looking for. You are not military or police so you can't have an official military or police service dog.
And by the time they are ready to be retired, they are pretty worn down. They get worked and worked hard in the service.
I used to work with Military Working Dogs when I was in High School. My Explorer Post was operated by a few Dog Handlers in the K9 Unit.

Okay, so you are military. All I saw was that you are a security guard. For all I knew, a mall cop (been there done that). Can I ask why you are asking this question in a public forum and not within your command structure? If they agreed with your need for one, then they'd get you one. It's not like the civilian police corps where the handler usually buys and has the dog trained themselves. Not to mention, the training requirement on the human end for a Military Canine Working Team is pretty in depth. They're not just going to hand you a dog, you have to have specialized training for that dog.

My mother works at a university and we do the fingerprinting/stranger schooling week with our police division each and every 12 months, officials mentioned that their puppies have been combined of german shepherd and wolf hybrids so they did not have hip disorders. I am no longer definite if that's simply my subject despite the fact that. I wish this is helping :)

You should look up some kennels selling Schutzund German Shepherds. Essentially the same as buying a military one. And this way you can see the dogs parents on hand, and make sure they work as well as you like...

You might be able to get a retired one, after a certain age(I think its 7 years) dogs are considered unfit for service and retire, they usually go home with their handlers or back to the breeder for breeding but I'm sure they have a few that they sell to civilians. I know that's what the do with guide dogs anyway
You could try calling the army and asking them, I don't know how much it would cost though
