Pentagon Orders Active-Duty Military Police Unit to DC Region Amid Protests
[Mil.com] The Pentagon has ordered an active-duty battalion of military police soldiers from Fort Bragg, North Carolina to deploy to the Washington, D.C. area as the city braces for more violent demonstrations.

CNN was among the first to report the deployment order for between 200 and 250 MPs from Bragg. A Pentagon official confirmed to Military.com that the MPs are from the XVIII Airborne Corps.

The official did not specify what orders the MPs had been given. ABC reported, citing a Defense official, that the troops were being sent into the D.C. region but only on standby capacity, in the event that they are needed.

#2 I remember shortly after Katrina, my USMC Reserve son was called up to camp out about 30 miles outside New Orleans for a week or two. "Just in case", I suppose.
