Just to let people know the Swiss guards don't dress like that all the time. They only dress in traditional attire while on guard duty in the Vatican City. They dress is suit and other attire outside of the Vatican City when the Pope is visiting other nations plus they ditch the halberd for guns when real threat has being discovered.

Ironically the Swiss Guard has only been used once in a large scale engagement. And at that time. They made quite the well use of their halberds.

The Swiss Guards look like the Conquistadors from Spain 🇪🇸 back when they were adventurous and militant soldiers of the Spanish Empire in order to rule the New World

🔥

The Vatican armed forces, consisting of the Swiss Guard and the Vatican Gendarmerie, actually outnumber the defense forces of Antigua and Barbados.

That's just their ceremonial gear. They look like presidential bodyguards most of the time. Black Suit. Bulletproof Vest and hidden pistol. In a worst case scenario they also have assault rifles at their disposal.

In Switzerland it's illegal to serve in a military other than the Swiss Armed Forces. So officially Switzerland considers the Pontificial Guard as a Security Force.

In order to be a member of the Vatican's Swiss Guards, they have to be Swiss, Catholic, unmarried, between 19-30 years old, and have completed basic training in the Swiss Armed Forces. I believe after joining the Swiss Guard they can marry; I recall reading a caption in National Geographic of a Swiss Guard and his wife and infant son. But not 100% sure.

The only church leader allowed his own heavily armed ,private army, why more recruits, is he in any more danger? Hypocrisy.
