List of military units named after people
The following article comprises a list of military units, paramilitary groups, irregular armies, and other related armed formations alike that are named after various renowned individuals.
The Lincoln Battalion of the Spanish Civil War (left) took their name in homage to former US President Abraham Lincoln (right).
In addition to the official military and sub-military forces of various nations (both current and historical), this list also includes armed formations that are not under government administration such as volunteer militias, mercenary units, insurgent rebel groups, militant wings of political parties, extrajudicial death squads, guerilla armies, private military companies (PMCs), and terrorist-designated organizations.
However, combat units whose names include a particular ideological movement in them which happens to be derived after a certain individual it is associated with (e.g. “Marxist–Leninist”, “Sandinista” or “Christianity”) are not to be included in this article. For example, Guevarista Revolutionary Army would not be a permitted entry as the "Guevarista" part in its name refers to Guevarism, an eponymous political ideology named after communist revolutionary Che Guevara.
