USAF Security Forces
Security police units were officially
redesignated "security forces" units July
1, reflecting new emphasis on their mission of force
protection, an integral part of the Air Force core
competency of agile combat support. The security forces
career field consists of the merged combat arms training
and maintenance, security and law enforcement fields.
Merging security police with the combat arms field
contributes a cadre of highly skilled ground weapons
experts to the force-protection mission. Security
forces will retain the military police mission within
the Air Force. When performing this mission, security
forces members will continue to be called security
police. Security forces will support the air expeditionary
forces by providing the core of the force protection
team that includes other Air Force specialties such
as civil engineering (including explosive ordinance
disposal), communications, intelligence, logistics,
transportation, medical and the Office of Special
Investigations.
Note: Security Forces are not designated
Special Operations Forces.
