Summary

[edit]
Description
English: Pictured is the Tactical recognition flash (TRF) of the Military Provost Guard Service (MPGS).

The Military Provost Guard Service (MPGS) provides professional soldiers to meet armed security requirements at Royal Navy, Army, RAF and other MOD bases in Great Britain.

Stationed at over 106 sites, the MPGS have their own Military Local Service Contract which allows soldiers to choose where they wish to serve, providing there is a vacancy.

The primary role of the MPGS is to counter the terrorist threat posed to military bases in Great Britain through the provision of armed guarding services.

The MPGS is part of the Provost Branch of the Adjutant General's Corps and is under the direction of Provost Marshal (Army), who is the Director and Head of Service. MPGS units are formed under the command of their respective Head of Establishment, with Provost Marshal (Army) maintaining technical standards through annual inspections.
