Social Sciences - History / Police, Marshals, Texas Rangers
English term or phrase: deputized citizens
This is from a text about US and Mexican history, talking about a historic meeting between President Taft (US) and Diaz (Mexico).

The Mexican and U.S. troops that took part in the parade were there for security reasons, as was the local police department, the County Sheriff's Department, U.S. Secret Service agents, U.S. Customs inspectors, deputy U.S. Marshals, a company of Texas Rangers, and about 250 deputized citizens.

Gracias a todos.

Asker: Gracias por contestar Cochi. Estas personas eran voluntarios, pero más allá de serlo, les habían dado la autoridad para hacer las veces de agentes del orden público.
