Civilian Guidance Corps

Overview
The Civilian Guidance Corps (CGC), also known as the "Friendly Persuaders", is the civilian police force of worlds within the Draconis Combine. It was also described as a local constabulary.[1] At least on the world of Kawabe they are under oath to serve the local Prefect.[2]
They are a branch of the Combine's Ministry of Peaceful Order and Honor (Kakun, Ministry of Justice).[3] They wear bright, red (or pink)-and-white striped uniforms specifically to be highly visible, and thus possibly deter troublemakers through their presence.[4][1]
Although typically armed with non-lethal weapons such as standard-issue police stunners,[4] they can also carry lethal weapons up to PoliceMechs. As of 3028, the CGC on An Ting had sixteen 'Mechs including at least one GS-54 Guard.[5]
