Shown above is a team member of the The Hyperbole Faction, feared throughout the colonial planets as an unstoppable rebellion-squashing force. They were given the nickname by anti-UET (United Earth Territories) activists as a tongue in cheek insult, to lessen the strength of their exaggerated reputation. The name was heard by the faction's leaders and stuck, eventually becoming the official title of the military branch.
I just made all of that up off the top of my head.
