I am a Military Police Man in the Singapore Armed Forces I serve my country with Pride, Discipline and Honour. With Pride, I will always discharge my duties firmly and fairly, honestly and without fear or favour. With Discipline, I will always strive for the highest standards of soldiering. With Honour, I will always accomplish my missions courageously, loyally and decisively.
@@tanzepei1985 you realise that "men" is an umbrella term for all non-commander personnel, male and female alike, in the military right. Stop this gender bullshit
@97432561 the SAF is protecting our home 24/7. Whats ur problem with the SAF didnt get to OCS? Or failed IPPT? Or are u overweight and was put in transport division
Cuz the crossed muskets are traditionally associated with Military Police, since it was used in the 17th to 19th centuries by Military Police troopers in America. Though muskets are now obselete and no longer used in modren warfare, the crossed muskets are still used on military police badges in many countries around the world, such as Singapore and USA.
Unfortunately, the SAF has thrown away many British traditions over the years, including the regimental system, removing the embroidered epaulettes and crimson sashes for officers’ ceremonial uniform, changing the rank insignia of almost all ranks, and changing the army flag from the traditional red with the national flag as a canton, to a yellow and white pattern. The SAF has indeed been influenced by the US as Other Ranks part of MP units now wear white helmets with MP printed on the sides when in their No. 3 uniform, or a black beret (not bright red, though the ceremonial peak cap still is.) Speaking of which, they have had the habit of fitting everyone in combat uniform where possible (even clerks and senior officers that aren’t in the field) and the peak cap is no longer part of any working uniform. However some changes can also be attributed to Israeli influence in the 1960s and 1970s too...
To be fair, Singapore is a country of conscripts, so we were all just issued the combat uniform regardless of trade or posting - too many uniforms = too much cost. I'm a little disappointed in the lack of peaked caps in the Singapore Army outside OCS, but they do seem hardly used in the first place (the beret being the most common working headdress), so fair dinkum to reduce the amount of kit required. (Correct me if I am mistaken, but the MP beret, as with most other branches of the SAF, is dark blue.) That being said, in terms of localisation - among others, I don't think the Singapore artillery regards their guns as their colours, given that there exists a Trooping of the Colours done by the Singapore artillery. But our drill and ceremonial is still fairly close to the British standard, at any rate.
@@jn316rc Ah yes. Dark blue, not black beret for MP. I would still appreciate if we paraded in two long rows by company, and kept LIHO and OSIM out of ceremonial parades... Haha
@@jn316rc As an MP, we get issued peaked caps to wear with our no.1s..... across all ranks. The poor presidential guardsmen practically live in their peaked caps. pitty I only got to wear it once.

Do SAF/MINDEF still call SAF MP agents "Military PoliceMEN" even though there are already pockets of female agents in the MP command?
wont forget the moment when i recite this pledge during passing out parade of my MP course.
