Not sure if it is the correct spelling ... "hunweibins"?
Could someone please tell me the right spelling?
"hunweibin" ( = Mao Zedong's "Red Gardian" ) ... this does not look to be correct ...
I tried googling but the search engine reported just a dozen or so instances ... too few for this spelling to be correct?
THank you!

Hi, I assume this is the English version of some Chinese name? Perhaps it is not commonly enough used to have a 'right spelling'. Best wishes, Clive

Thank you Clive!
Curiously, there is an article about Red Guards in the wikipedia ( http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Red Guards(China) ) ... but there seems to be no (English)transliteration for the original Chinese term there.

The correct spelling is “Hongweibing,” without the Pinyin for tones. Original characters are ???.
