Maybe "Life Guards" is more appropriate than "Body Guards" ?

Pity for the poor alien

I guess the correct english equivalence would be "Corps Guard" ... referring to the Guard of determined Corps.
The term corps also exists in english and is used in Army structures.

In France Garde du Corp du Roi, in Spain it was Guardia del Cuerpo del Rey, in English the exact translation would have been "Guard of the King's Body"., ie. the King's Body Guard
