Military Police Corps |
| Today's
military police officer enjoys the distinction of a truly unique role in the
Army by having two diverse and challenging missions. first is the
ever-present need to prepare for war by leading and training combat ready
military police forces that can conduct combat operations against enemy
forces in the rear area, and expedite battlefield movement of critical
resources. second is the peacetime garrison environment for law
enforcement, criminal investigation, terrorism, counter-action, physical
security, corrections, and crime prevention. This mission focuses on
the human aspects of law enforcement and reflects the military police
motto--of the troops and for the troops. Just as the Infantry is trained to conduct combat operations on the front lines, the military police corps is trained to detect and deter the enemy in the rear area, protecting command posts, communications centers, and vital resources. As a newly commissioned officer, you'll attend the military police officer basic course. your training will emphasize leadership, tactics, physical training, maintenance and supply. Additional areas of study include military police operations, civil and military law, weapons training, personnel administration, and communicative skills. You may also attend specialized courses such as airborne, air assault, and ranger to support your first assignment.
