2 Military Police Company

"There is no such thing as a good, bad, or indifferent soldier. To be called a soldier is deserving of the highest compliment; it need no prefix, or describing word; it is an absolute like being dead or alive. Either a man is a soldier or he isn't" by Capt V.G. Pearce, Royal Engineers, 1916
