304th MP BN

The 304th Military Police Battalion (304th MP BN) was originally constituted on 18 June 1942 in the Army of the United States and activated at Camp Swift, Texas. During World War II, the battalion provided critical military police support in the European Theater, ensuring order and discipline among U.S. forces and handling prisoners of war. After the war, the unit underwent several inactivations and reactivations, reflecting the changing needs of the U.S. Army. Today, the 304th MP BN continues to serve as a key element in the Army Reserve, providing law enforcement, detainee operations, and support to military operations both at home and abroad.
