Military Police Battalion Yearbook

Below is the yearbook issued by the Provisional Military Police Battalion at Los Alamos, NM issued January 1, 1947.  The yearbook commemorates the atomic bomb security forces from the inception of the Military Police Detachment in 1943 until the time in 1947 when security was turned over to civilian security guards under the Atomic Energy Commission.  This yearbook is an important part of our archives and was provided to us by Robert Fortenberry, a former military policeman and one of the men depicted in this yearbook.  In the next several weeks, we will begin adding these names to our veteran tables so that families may search for a particular name.  NOTE: IN ORDER TO MAINTAIN A HIGH ENOUGH RESOLUTION SO THAT THEY MAY BE VIEWED CLEARLY, IT WAS NECESSARY TO SACRIFICE SOME SPEED.  EVEN THOUGH THEY HAVE BEEN OPTIMIZED FOR THE WEB, THEY MAY STILL LOAD SLOWLY FOR THOSE USING DIAL-UP MODEMS.
