226th Military Police

The 226th Military Police was constituted in the United States Army during World War II, providing critical law enforcement and security support to military operations. The unit played a vital role in maintaining order, overseeing prisoner-of-war operations, and supporting battlefield mobility by managing traffic and convoy security. Over the decades, the 226th adapted to changing missions, deploying during major conflicts and peacekeeping operations around the globe. Today, the 226th Military Police continues its tradition of excellence, serving both at home and abroad in support of national defense and humanitarian missions.
