The Military Provost Guard Service (MPGS) provides professional soldiers to meet the armed security requirements at the Royal Navy, Army, Royal Air Force, and other Ministry of Defence bases in Great Britain. Their primary role is to counter the terrorist threat posed to military bases in Great Britain. Stationed at over 120 sites, they have their own Military Local Service Contract which allows soldiers to choose where they wish to serve, providing there is a vacancy.

Their Duties include:

  • Controlling entry and exit to a site.
  • Managing control room operations and ensuring visitors are dealt with efficiently. 
  • Patrolling site perimeters and taking necessary action to preserve perimeter security.
  • Security incident management, such as suspicious packages, bomb threats, protests.
