18 Military Police were taken prisoner of war by German forces during the raid, and one, Lieutenant Peter Oliver, was killed in action on 19 August 1942.  ​In honour of his sacrifice, the “Oliver Trophy” is awarded to the most outstanding MP QL3 candidate of every year.

August 2001

The MP Branch takes a massive step towards data automation as the first operational Security and Military Police Information System (SAMPIS) terminals begin rolling out to MP at CFSU (Ottawa), CFNIS, and CFPM HQ.  A training system is also deployed to CFMPA. 

​This initial deployment would last until September 2001.  SAMPIS would continue to roll out to all remaining MP units between September 2001 and July 2003.
