Assist. Protect. Defend. US Army Military Police in 1944 & the Challenges of Future Force Structure

  • Summary

  • In this episode, Lieutenant Colonel Christopher Evans joins me to talk about the Military Police at Normandy and in 1944, as well as the challenges of future force structure planning and compromises. As LTC Evans explains in the episode, the MPs help extend the Commander's operational reach from the established bases of operations to the forward lines of troops through the balance of momentum, endurance, and protection. They help address the Commander's "people problems" and prevent issues from spiraling.
