Description
A Ministry of Defence Police boat sets out on a patrol from Plymouth Navy Base in Devon with the Cornish village of Cremyll behind it. The Ministry of Defence Police was formed in 1971 by the merger of three civil constabularies, the Air Force Department Constabulary (previously under the control of the Air Ministry), the Army Department Constabulary (previously under the control of the War Office), and the Admiralty Constabulary (previously under the control of the Admiralty). The Ministry of Defence Police has the largest marine support unit of any of the police forces in the UK. The marine support units are responsible for the waterborne security of Her Majesty's Dockyards and HM Naval Bases. At HMNB Clyde, it works with the Fleet Protection Group Royal Marines.
