T he Military Police are exceptional people. They provide assistance and devote their time and skills to local and military projects and to our country's call to war. I was a member of the famed 745 Military Police Company (Thunderbirds). This unit was formed in 1969 and retired its colors in 1996. The 745 was known for many events and honors, and citations from the United States Military.
