The formation of these war units began on November 5, 1990, when the 1st Guards Brigade "Tigers" was formed in Rakitje.

Under the motto, "fighting for Croatia like a tiger", it received numerous awards and praises for its war successes, and in January 2003 it merged with the 9th Guards Brigade "Wolves" into a new unit.

The headquarters of the unit is in the barracks "Pukovnik Predrag Matanović" in Petrinja and on May 15 it celebrates the anniversary of the 2nd Guards Brigade and the Battalion Day.

Volunteers from the wider area of central Dalmatia joined the police officers in the camps in Resnik, Trilj and Imotski.

It was formally established on 1 November 1992 by order of the Minister of Defence of the Republic of Croatia and later renamed the 9th Guards Brigade "Wolves".
