GR020 - Edition 1,500
Royal Military Police
In 1946, in recognition of its outstanding war record,
HM King George VI granted the 'Royal' prefix to the Royal Military
Police (RMP). They had earned a reputation for bravery and devotion to
duty during the Wars. The Roll of Honour contains 229 operational awards
won, including 7 MCs, 6 DCMs, 61 MMs and 776 Mentions in Dispatches.
Military Police carried out immensely difficult and valuable work,
establishing the tradition of being 'first in, last out' on the
battlefields. Since WW2 the RMP has been active in every operational
theatre.
