The 212th company was stationed at Long Binh, and had many outlying detachments. Photos from the years between 65' - 72', were submitted by the dog handlers of the 212th. This site is dedicated to all dog handlers that had the pleasure to vacation in sunny Southeast Asia. Great looking site using the Military Police Colors.

The other page devoted to the US Army is US Army MP Brigades I would suggest taking your time and exploring this great site that is truly international.
