Military police, colloquially as MPs, are concerned with law enforcement on military property and concerning military personnel, installation security, close personal protection of senior military officers, management of prisoners of war, management of military prisons, traffic control, route signing and resupply route management. However, not all military police organizations are concerned with all of these. MPs are generally not frontline combat personnel, but their duties may bring them near the frontline.
In the Halo universe
The UNSC Marine Corps maintains its own military police, as does the UNSC Army, used to guard military installations on Reach and Earth, as well as other high priority installations[1],[2] such as the UNSC shipyard from which the Pillar of Autumn takes off in the final level of Halo Reach. On this level the miliatry police help you fight your way through to the Pillar of Autumn and defend the landing pad. Once you defeat the first wave of covenant on the landing pad, a pelican full of MPs arrive to help you defeat the second wave. There are armed exclusivly with the MA37 assault rifle, although they can be given any weapon troopers can be given. The MPs fight and behave exactly the same as Army Troopers although are armoured slightly differently. They wear theMilitary Police helmet, with a see through visor, the recon chest, the enlargened version of the GUNGNIR shoulder worn by Army Troopers on their left arm and an unidentified shoulder on their right. They also wear UA/NxRA utility thigh armour on both legs.
It is unknown whether the UNSC Navy maintains its own MPs, though it is presumed that Marine MPs also function in coordination with the UNSC Navy. ODST MPs formed a security detail for the SPARTAN-117's testing of the Mark V MJOLNIR Armor.
Spartans also have a military police version of their armor.

They didn't salute, and their hands rested on their holstered sidearms. They stared straight ahead, but Wagner knew that if he twitched the wrong way he'd be shot first and questioned later.")
