Snow Leopard Commando, formerly known as "Snow Wolf Commando", once belonged to the Special Service Brigade (Brigade 3) of the Special Service Detachment of the Beijing Municipal Corps of the Chinese People's Armed Police Force, and was founded in February 2002. When participating in the "Cooperation -2007" joint military exercise, it was renamed the Snow Leopard Commando. In 2003, the Snow Leopard Commando was transferred from the 13th detachment and reorganized into the Snow Leopard Commando of the Beijing Corps of the Chinese People's Armed Police Force. Together with the Special Operations Brigade of the Special Police College of the Chinese People's Armed Police Force (20 14 renamed Falcon Commando), the Beijing Anti-Terrorism Force was established.

The "Snow Wolf Spirit" here probably refers to the traditional spirit of the Snow Wolf Army.
