Concept art of an Army military police.

Military police, colloquially as MPs, are concerned with security operations. Their duties include defending military installations, policing military installations, providing security in order to ensure freedom of movement for other military units during combat operations, management of prisoners of war, controlling access to highly sensitive areas, and close personal protection of senior military officers. While MPs do not function as frontline combat troops, their duties regularly bring them into engagements with enemy forces.

UNSC

The UNSC Marine Corps maintains its own military police, as does the UNSC Army and the UNSC Navy[1], used to guard military installations on Reach and Earth, as well as other high priority installations.[2][3]

ODST MPs formed a security detail for John-117's testing of the Mark V MJOLNIR Armor on August 2552.

The Office of Naval Intelligence's Beta-5 Division also has its own military police force. The helmet used by the Beta-5 MP has also been adopted for use with the MJOLNIR armor, and is also used in conjunction with the UNSC Marine Corps and UNSC Army armor systems as the default enclosed helmet.[4]

After the Human-Covenant War, some Spartans were assigned to military police duties, unoficially adopting the RAIDER-class Mjolnir in the process.[5]

They didn't salute, and their hands rested on their holstered sidearms. They stared straight ahead, but Wagner knew that if he twitched the wrong way he'd be shot first and questioned later.")
