607th MP Battalion

The 607th Military Police Battalion was constituted on 27 May 1943 in the Army of the United States and activated on 1 June 1943 at Fort Custer, Michigan. During World War II, the battalion provided vital military police support in the European Theater, including traffic control, security, and prisoner of war operations. Following the war, the unit was inactivated on 13 November 1945 in France. The 607th MP Battalion has since been periodically reactivated and inactivated, continuing to serve in various military police roles as needed by the U.S. Army.
