Today in MP History

1 April 2011:  The Canadian Forces Provost Marshal (CFPM), Colonel Tim Grubb, assumed full command of all MP who are directly involved in policing duties with the formation of the Canadian Forces Military Police Group (CF MP Gp).

Under this new structure, Military Police environmental and operational command policing assets were placed under the full command of the CFPM, who now had the dual role of CF MP Gp Commander.  ​The Military Police Security Service (MPSS) and the Canadian Forces Service Prison and Detention Barracks (CFSPDB) were made part of the MP Services Group, while the Canadian Forces National Investigation Service (CFNIS) and Canadian Forces Military Police Academy (CFMPA) remained directly under the CF MP Gp structure.
