Sabers Honorary units of the President of the Slovak Republic
The armies of the bodyguards, or guards, have always served the flowering of society, or extraordinarily capable and certified soldiers, devoted to their commander in chief - the head of state. Their primary task was to protect the monarch and members of his family in residences, on the roads, or even on the battlefield. Last but not least, they contributed to increasing the brilliance and prestige of the head of state at court festivities, audiences, military parades, etc. For all these occasions, the guardsmen were equipped with a magnificent uniform and equipment.
