The Finnish MPs wear a black brassard on the left shoulder with the letters 'SP' in white. A military policeman is usually armed with a 9 mm pistol, a baton, pepper spray and handcuffs on their belt. The military police includes both career and conscript personnel, and is primarily used to guard military installations and supervise military traffic. All military police personnel are trained with basic police techniques and usually receive training for <a href="/wiki/Urban_combat" class="mw-redirect" title="Urban combat">fighting in urban areas</a>. In wartime, the tasks are more extensive and include protection of key personnel and targets, especially against enemy special forces, and surveillance, control, pursuit, arrest and destruction missions. For training, almost all brigades have military police companies. The companies are part of and subordinate to the brigade. </p><p>The military police has jurisdiction over military personnel, military areas, installations and exercise areas. However, a military police patrol may stop a crime that it witnesses in process in a civilian area. Additionally, if a military police unit is near to a serious crime taking place, such as a robbery or an assault, and the civilian police are delayed, a military police unit that is near to the scene can offer to handle the situation until the civilian police arrive. As with some other Finnish Defence Forces units, the military police can be used to provide assistance to the civilian police when they are undermanned or lack special resources. In such case, the military police may take measures deemed necessary by the civilian police. For example, during the 2005 Helsinki World Athletic Championship Games, military police conscripts and career personnel were placed along the <a href="/wiki/Marathon" title="Marathon">marathon</a> route to prevent the large numbers of spectators from obstructing the runners. </p><p>Before and during <a href="/wiki/World_War_II" title="World War II">World War II</a>, Finland did not have military police in peacetime, but only temporary <i>sotapoliisi</i> ("war police"). Ex-police officers were conscripted for police officer duty in the armed forces; usually only the officers had police training. Planning for <i>sotapoliisi</i> was still unfinished at the break of war, so regular reservists could not be conscripted. Thus personnel had to be recruited without regard to quality; conscripts found unfit for field duty for e.g. health reasons, and even those with previous criminal record were recruited, and the reputation suffered. <sup id="cite_ref-35" class="reference"><a href="#cite_note-35"><span class="cite-bracket">[</span>35<span class="cite-bracket">]</span></a></sup> For a long time, <i>sotapoliisi</i> existed only in wartime. However, improvement to this came eventually: the military police school was founded in 1963, and civilian police background was no longer required. </p><p>The crimes committed by military personnel are, as a rule, investigated by the military. Minor infractions are usually investigated by the career personnel of the unit, while more serious crimes are investigated by the investigative section of the General Staff of the Finnish Defence Forces. In minor matters, the company commander or their superiors may use disciplinary powers, but more serious cases are deferred to the civilian prosecutor who will take the case to the district court. </p> <div class="mw-heading mw-heading4"><h4 id="France">France</h4><span class="mw-editsection"><span class="mw-editsection-bracket">[</span><a href="/w/index.php?title=Military_police&action=edit&section=46" title="Edit section: France"><span>edit</span></a><span class="mw-editsection-bracket">]</span></span></div> <figure class="mw-default-size mw-halign-left" typeof="mw:File/Thumb"><a href="/wiki/File:Juillet_2013_-_brassard_pr%C3%A9v%C3%B4t%C3%A9_afghanistan.jpg" class="mw-file-description"><img src="//upload.wikimedia.org/wikipedia/commons/thumb/e/ea/Juillet_2013_-_brassard_pr%C3%A9v%C3%B4t%C3%A9_afghanistan.jpg/220px-Juillet_2013_-_brassard_pr%C3%A9v%C3%B4t%C3%A9_afghanistan.jpg" decoding="async" width="220" height="390" class="mw-file-element" srcset="//upload.wikimedia.org/wikipedia/commons/thumb/e/ea/Juillet_2013_-_brassard_pr%C3%A9v%C3%B4t%C3%A9_afghanistan.jpg/330px-Juillet_2013_-_brassard_pr%C3%A9v%C3%B4t%C3%A9_afghanistan.jpg 1.5x, //upload.wikimedia.org/wikipedia/commons/thumb/e/ea/Juillet_2013_-_brassard_pr%C3%A9v%C3%B4t%C3%A9_afghanistan.jpg/440px-Juillet_2013_-_brassard_pr%C3%A9v%C3%B4t%C3%A9_afghanistan.jpg 2x" data-file-width="1171" data-file-height="2074" /></a><figcaption>Armband of the Afghani detachment</figcaption></figure> <p>The <a href="/wiki/National_Gendarmerie" title="National Gendarmerie">National Gendarmerie</a> acts as both the military police and one of the two national law enforcement forces of <a href="/wiki/France" title="France">France</a>.
