MILITARY POLICE JOURNAL 503rd - A New Role

By PFC James Munn

The 503d Military Police Battalion, Fort Bragg, North Carolina, commanded by Lt Col Raymond E. LeVan, successfully displayed a flexibility during exercise Swift Strike III which was unique for a military police unit. Under simulated combat conditions, the battalion departed Fort Bragg and normal post duties and commitments to receive and execute a mission which demonstrated the unit's capability of engaging in infantry type action, when required. With modern tactics continually being revised to cope with the threat of limited or all out nuclear assault, troops may expect to be dispersed over greater areas. Such deployment, though necessary as security from a nuclear strike on concen- trated troop units, often leaves large areas of land vulnerable to enemy infiltration or breakthrough. Such was the case with the east flank of XVIII Airborne Corps during one phase of this joint exercise. Called on to secure and screen the 35 mile corps flank, a Capt Joseph V.

DECEMBER, 1963 9 STRAC Superiors Old Hat For Hood MP Units

The Strategic Army Corps has recognized two Fort Hood military police organizations through awards of the coveted STRAC Superior blue streamer. Recipients were the 720th MP Battalion and the 502d MP Company of the 2d Armored (Hell on Wheels) Division. The all-inclusive award was established by STRAC in an effort to enhance the unit combat-readiness and proficiency through competition. Few units throughout the history of STRAC have received the award since its inception four years ago. The awards are based on the annual performance of combat- readiness missions, including every aspect of STRAC operations. In order to quality for a superior award a unit must qualify all personnel in their basic weapon, pass every Army Lt Col Earl B. Milburn, CO of the 720th adds the Training Test with either an excellent or superior rating and fourth blue STRAC Superior streamer to the battalion receive either excellent or superior ratings in all categories in colors.

DECEMBER, 1963 The Division of State Police, largest and most important division in the Department of Public Safety, presently numbers 124 personnel, of which not more than 86 are actively engaged in police work. The Division is organized into three principal State Police Districts. The Southeastern, with headquarters in the state capital at Juneau, is commanded by Capt W. W. Trafton. The Western District, largest in number of personnel, is directed from Anchorage by Capt E. L. Mayfield, while the Northern District, with headquarters in Fairbanks, is headed by Capt John P. Monagle. Scattered throughout each district are the sub-offices; these state police posts, usually manned by one trooper, are located at strategic and sometimes isolated locations throughout the district area of jurisdiction. The Western District, in which most of Alaska's highways are situated, has as one of its main problems the enforcement of traffic laws, a problem which is not of major importance in the Southeastern and Northern Districts where highways are fewer and vehicular traffic lighter.

DECEMBER, 1963 When we look at the development of remote areas in the Republic of Vietnam, we can see an analogy to the development of our own West. In the initial phases of our own nation's growth, we saw the military secure the frontiers and provide protection from hostile elements for the new settlers. When the initial threat diminished, the military moved on, and the citizens of the community provided their own protection. In time these citizens elected their own officials to insure their protection and enforce the local ordinances. These individuals known as the town marshal, sheriff, or constable were the pioneers in the development of a law enforcement system responsive to the needs of our nation. Their accomplishments have made them legendary figures in the development of our West. Who will be the Earps and Dillons of this developing nation? In March, 1962, the Republic of Vietnam took one of the boldest steps in its struggle to overcome the communist supported insurgent groups. The Strategic Hamlet Program, as it has come to be called, was instituted in an attempt to provide government assistance and protection to individuals living in remote areas of Vietnam, who were bearing the brunt of the terrorist activities of the insurgent Viet Cong. In a very short time tremendous progress has been made in the development of strategic hamlets. In less than a year 7,000 Strategic Hamlet - The Rural Foundation By Capt Robert C. Barnum

strategic hamlets were completed or in the process of construction. Each day more refugees come in from the Viet Cong areas, and new hamlets are being established to provide the protection they seek.

SELF HELP PROGRAM What is involved in the construction of a strategic hamlet? This may well be described as one of the most gigantic do-it- yourself projects ever undertaken in this century.

While the central government provides the materials, financial assistance, and guidance, the citizens of the hamlet build their own community. In the first stage, the scheme calls for the building of defense works around the existing villages. Watch towers, earthwork moats lined with bamboo spikes and other barricades are constructed. In some areas, relocation is necessary and hamlets are constructed from the ground up. During this stage the regular armed forces provide security and technical assistance to the local residents. When the defense works are completed the hamlet is considered a secure hamlet, but not a "strategic hamlet."

MILITARY POLICE JOURNAL The hamlet with government assistance then forms its own Village Militia, Republican Youth, and other combatant youth organizations. Upon completion of their training these groups assume the responsibility of manning watchtowers, gun slots, and guard posts. At the same time the defense elements are being trained, other developments are taking place within the hamlet. A comprehensive political and social program is launched. Elec- tion of hamlet and village councils take place. Village by-laws are then drafted by an assembly of hamlet chiefs, village councilmen, and district officials. The purpose of these by-laws is to establish the legal framework for a democratic community. Thus the residents are assisted in the development of security and administrative self-sufficiency. The fact that the strategic hamlet program has hindered Viet Cong efforts cannot be denied. No longer can the in- A typical, unprotected Montagnard village is located on the slopes overlooking the fertile valley and community rice fields.

surgents prey upon the rural elements at will. To reach these citizens, they are forced to mount attacks against an entrenched and determined element fighting to protect their own homes.

FUTURE REQUIREMENTS As mentioned above, the hamlet program has proven itself in the short range objective of protecting the population from the insurgents. But the Republic of Vietnam envisions long range plans for these hamlets, which will establish a democratic form of government in the rural areas. The central Vietnamese government realizes there is a need for government services of health, education, police protection, and sound administration to the rural populace if the nation is to develop.

DECEMBER, 1963 STRATEGIC Continued

Many of the rural provinces have now reached the point where rural police development must begin. It must be a simple, unsophisticated form of law enforcement, which meets the needs of the rural populace. Ideally it should be a citizen of the hamlet who has the trust and confidence of the people. The individual may possibly have some military background, but will have had no formal training in the police field. Guid- ance and training will be essential, for if the nation is to com- pete and grow in this century, development in all areas will have to be much faster than that of our own nation. The Military Police Corps has the potential of providing this developmental assistance in the police field if called upon. As these strategic hamlets are developed, and a measure of security is attained, it is important we begin immediately to lay the foundation for a lasting organization, which will provide police service to the rural community, and insure that internal security is maintained. Of primary interest initially will be those things closely related to the defense of the village in the areas of physical security - operation of gates, control of materials and population and methods of search. These are areas where the US Military Police Corps has more worldwide experience than any other police organization. They are areas which lay across the lines of military-civil police fields and they are areas essential to a successful counter-insurgency effort. At the same time the rural police officer needs to know fire prevention, the importance of observing and reporting details (who, what, when, where and why), and the importance (ABOVE) Guard towers of fair and impartial enforcement of the village ordinances. and connected bunkers provide keystones These too are not foreign areas to the US Military Police. in a hamlet's defensive perimeter.

He could be the means whereby the regular artry and other strategic forces would be able to intercept the small covert operations rather than attempting to react only to overt attacks perpetrated by the insurgents. The National Police within the provinces could be the correlating agency of information gathered thru this rural system. But the relationship should be one of assistance and recognition of accomplishments well done rather than direction. The village chief should provide the direction and thereby come to count this individual as a valuable member of his council, who is responsive to the village elders. As our own West could not await the arrival of police experts to establish sophisticated, technical methods of law enforcement, neither can the remote areas of the Republic of Vietnam or other developing nations. By starting now, as the insurgent tide is turned, we will find a valuable tool to the establishment of a free society. The hamlet will have an individuaal who has worked at his job, developed his skill, and is ready to serve his community in developing a free democratic society.

MILITARY POLICE JOURNAL Nautical MPs Only Patrol On Berlin Lake

The city of Berlin located 110 miles behind the iron cur- tain is surrounded by the Soviet-controlled zone of Germany. A common border separating the East German zone from the American sector of the divided city lies along the bottom of a deep twisting lake called the Wannsee. The job of patrolling the waters of this lake on the US side of the border has been assigned to Berlin Brigade's military police. An MP boat patrol consists of two enlisted men and one German civilian driver who travel along the border and throughout other parts of the lake several times a day. The average patrol lasts two hours. Much of the area which the MP patrol covers was once the fashionable "Beverly Hills" of Germany. Now the shore along the Soviet side is enclosed by barbed wire strung on concrete posts and patrolled by East German border guards from boats half hidden in inlets along the bank. Signs by American authorities declaring "Caution Soviet Zone" designate the border area. On the Soviet side of these signs, the water is patrolled by East German boats and on the US side by the MP boat patrol. The boat patrol began operating in 1957 when it was assigned the job of protecting American personnel and property. The boat docks at the harbor of the US Army Recreation Center and the patrol's chief function still remains to render assistance to US personnel in distress. Since it is the only Allied boat patrol in the city, the MPs are often stopped by stranded British and French boating enthusiasts. Recently, the Commandant of the British Sector of Berlin, Major General David Peel-Yates, hailed the patrol and requested assistance in towing his outboard craft to harbor. Military policemen are assigned to the boat patrol on the basis of their own personal interest in the job and swimming ability. The men are drawn from Berlin Brigade's 287th Mili- tary Police Company and from a platoon of Company B, 385th MP Battalion, which came to Berlin from Stuttgart in 1961 following the building of the wall.

The German amphibious police provide police services for the extensive inland waterway system of the Federal Republic. European-based Army criminal investigators have found the team's assistance invaluable. They are used to search for the bodies of drowning victims and victims of foul play. Valuable property and evidence including weapons have also been recovered. Both Reynolds and Carlisle learned their underwater skills as an adventurous hobby. They have welcomed the opportunity in Europe to put their hobby "to work."

Acarded the So4ldir Itedat

La Rochelle, France- "For an act of heroism beyond the call of duty," Maj Gen Webster Anderson, CG, USARCOMZ- EUR, pinned the Soldiers Medal on Pfc Robert A. Unruh of the 188th MP Company. The Soldiers Medal, the highest peacetime medal for heroism awarded by the US Army, was presented at ceremonies held at the site of the young hero's daring lifesaving rescue effort last December at La Pallice Port, La Rochelle. Private first class Unruh was cited for saving the life of a crew member of the MSTS ship, the Overseas Joyce. While on security guard at the port, Private first class Unruh heard a cry for help coming from the direction of the dock-side Overseas Joyce. Rushing to the scene, he found that a seaman had fallen off the gangway and was wedged in an 18-inch aperture between the ship and the pier approximately 15 feet below the pier level. Despite the great danger of being crushed by any movement of the ship in the choppy water, Private first class Unruh went into the water, secured a rope around the seaman, and had the man hoisted to safety. For his heroic action, Private first class Unruh also was awarded the Army Commendation Medal by Col Robert A. Smoak, CO, US Army Port Area Command. END

DECEMBER, 1963 Index of MP JOURNAL Articles for 1963

An index of the feature type JOURNAL articles for 1963 is presented below. Many readers have asked for a reference of this type to assist in locating past articles of interest. In the December 1962 JOURNAL, an index was published for articles which appeared during 1960 through 1962. Many times our readers request additional back copies of the JOURNAL. For 1963, the issues for February, March, April, May, and June are in short supply; therefore, the Military Police Association may not be able to fulfill requests for additional copies for these months.

The index is divided into 15 separate categories for easier reference. Articles are listed by title, author, date of JOURNAL issue, and page number.
