Hi i am thinking of enlisting after HS and i was woundering if in the corps if your mso could be Law enforcement. I know the army has a program for that but i was woundering if the corps has one.

Why yes they do have USMC MPs. Here's a link to their training site:

I hope you like saluting cars, directing traffic, guard duty, and running with convoys.
On the plus side you get to salute more officers than the average soldier

^ not only that but you get to beat the stuffing out of junior digs on a saturday night

Being an MP isn't so bad, once you've been in two or three years. Gate duty only lasts for so long, and then you get an under powered government police car to use patrolling a very well bahaved section of society. On the plus side, you do get to mess with people that outrank you by about a thousand steps on the career ladder.

Don't forget enforcing those rediculis speed limits.

The AF bought great cars with pursuit pack add ons, then put them on base and drove them max 30mph.(thats on the 5 mile road through the desert.)
"The reason I pulled you over is you were doing 25 coming out of base housing."
(speed limit in base housing 15mph)

6 years guarding airplanes, never lost one
They tend to get upset if a plane gets lost. It was here last time i checked.
2 apprehensions and 3 security incidents.
USAF SP, you can now guard planes and the main gate on different days.
Now they share the boredom.

Marine MP's the second best military police, sorry guys, at least when I went through SP training the Marines came to our SP school.

lol On deployment, an alarm went off in our building and the commander (a LtC) went outside to say that everything was ok. Instead, a 2 striper with an M-16 made him stand in the rain with his hands up for 10 minutes until the SPs cleared everything. The commander was ticked off, but the SPs were doing their job.
