The 793rd Military Police Battalion was originally constituted on June 10, 1942, in the Army of the United States and activated at Camp Maxey, Texas. During World War II, the battalion deployed to the European Theater, providing critical security, law enforcement, and prisoner of war operations. In the post-war years, the 793rd served in various locations, including Germany, where it played a vital role in Cold War military policing and community security. Today, the battalion continues to support U.S. Army operations, maintaining readiness to deploy worldwide for law enforcement and security missions.
