History.
Originally founded as the Frontier Corps in 1878, in 1917, under the administration of Sultan Hussein Kamel, the Department of Border and Coastal Management was created a sub-department of the Ministry of Finance, and under it the Border Guard was founded. In 1939, the Coast Guard was separated into the Ministry of War, later forming the basis for the founding of the modern Egyptian Navy. On 6 July, 1972, the Command of the Border Guard was created from the merging of the other departments and was given to the Army, rejoining the Coast Guard and Border Guard. 
The Egyptian Border Guard participated in World War II including stopping the sabotage of Matrouh-Alexandria railway in the Fukah region by German soldiers.
