The Sailors of the Imperial Guard was the naval contingent of the Quenminese Imperial Guard. The regiment was organized into four battalions, the first and second consisting of marines, the third sailors, and the fourth engineers; this organization would be preserved in the regiment's contemporary rendition. During the latter years of Quocvangist rule, they were a pivotal unit that participated in the Coup of Three Fours alongside several other guard regiments, which observed the toppling of the government.
