The SFOR logo was painted to the side of Gp Capt Colman the aircraft and, from its base at the Banja Luka Metal Factory, the Merlin immediately set to work providing aviation support in the form of moving troops and supplies by air. This routine support helicopter tasking was supplemented by more interesting tasks such as those of 24th April 2003, which saw multiple flights to downtown Sarajevo, the former Yugoslavian capital, to transport air conditioning units from Sarajevo Airport to the roof of the 21-floor UNIS Twin Towers. As time passed it was clear that the Merlin was proving to be a highly dependable and capable asset, taking on more sophisticated night tasking and the casualty and medical evacuation role. After returning from Bosnia in late 2004, the Merlin Force retrained and redeployed in March 2005, this time to Iraq in support of Op TELIC. Self-ferrying the 4,500 mile journey in just four days, the Merlin Force was capable of undertaking in-theatre training and limited operational tasking within a day of arrival!

  • Police Memorial Chapel Southwick Park, Hampshire
    POLICE MEMORIAL CHAPEL SOUTHWICK PARK, HAMPSHIRE Commemorative window for D-Day (0.9m x 1.0m) 2019 The overall theme of the design is Operation Overlord, remembered now as the ‘D-Day’ landings in Normandy on 6th June 1944, and the pivotal role of the Royal Military Police in that operation. The starting point of the design is the familiar British flag, overlaid with the letters D A Y signifying D-Day in the yellow colour of the beaches of Normandy. The arrow shapes of the flag show the police leading the way, as the forces arrive on the beaches and head inwards towards the green landscape of northern France. At the heart of the D is a Military Police Officer in his distinctive red cap, beckoning our armed forces into France with one hand whilst stopping the German advance with the other. The arrow also points towards the East and the liturgical focus of the Memorial Church, and so the Officer ‘showing the way’ can also be read as the church’s role in showing the way to a Christian life in the love of Christ. Approaching the Military Police Officer are representatives of the three armed forces, working together in this largest and most successful example of an All Arms Combined Operation. To the top, the Royal Air Force is depicted with AW41 Abermarle Aircraft jettisoning the British scouts of the Parachute and Air Landing Brigades. In the centre, the Royal Navy is represented by HMS Belfast, one of the largest warships in the invasion fleet in Normandy.

  • Service Police Review by Louisa Brooke-Holland
    BRIEFING PAPER Number 08993, 30 June 2020 Service Police review By Louisa Brooke-Holland Summary The Army, RAF and Royal Navy each have their own police services. They are collectively known as the Service Police. The Ministry of Defence published a review of the Service Police and the Service Justice System in early 2020. The review will inform the next Armed Forces Bill, which must be passed by Parliament in 2021. The review supported retaining three separate Service Police organisations but recommended the creation of a tri-service defence serious crime unit. The review also recommended Service Police should no longer be responsible for investigating the most serious offences (murder, rape and manslaughter) in the UK. This briefing paper explains who the Service Police are, what they do, and the outcome of the review. The Library will publish a paper on the Service Justice System Review at a later date. 1. The Service Police The Service Justice System provides a legal framework that ensures Service personnel are subject to a single disciplinary code that applies wherever they are serving. The disciplinary systems of the three services – the Army, the Royal Navy and the Royal Air Force (RAF) – were drawn together under a common system by the Armed Forces Act 2006. While the Service Justice System mirrors the criminal law in England and Wales as closely as possible it also provides an avenue to enforce standards that are distinctive to the Armed Forces. Each of the three services has its own police force: The Royal Military Police (RMP) in the Army, the Royal Air Force Police (RAFP) and the Royal Navy Police (RNP).
