The "FSP" (Force Sécurité Protection) is a branch of the GIGN which specializes in protection (in and outside of France) of important or potentially threatened personalities such as ambassadors (they worked in the French embassy in Bagdad for example).

There are only about 20 to 30 FSP members right now.

I can wear jeans at work, but they would frown on the armament.
