It is an Active Component/Reserve Component formation of the U.S. Army Reserve. First activated in 1959, the brigade was a part of the reserves for the first 40 years of its existence, and never participated in any conflicts or wars of the 20th century. Its headquarters moved around several places until coming to Gaithersburg in 1970, where it has remained ever since. The brigade was activated into the active duty force for one year from early 2003 until early 2004 to participate in the initial invasion and occupation of Iraq, Operation Iraqi Freedom. After this deployment, the brigade was again placed in reserve and has since commanded units in readiness exercises for other large U.S. combat formations preparing to deploy in support of U.S. operations worldwide. == Organization == The 220th Military Police Brigade is headquartered at the Major General Benjamin L. Hunton Memorial United States Army Reserve Center at 8791 Snouffer School Road in Gaithersburg, Maryland, which also serves as the headquarters of the U.S. Army Reserve Legal Command. As a reserve unit, the formation is not in existence on a permanent basis, but is instead only called upon when needed.〔 The brigade's Headquarters and Headquarters Company is located in Gaithersburg, and it commands two other reserve military police battalions.〔 These are the 336th Military Police Battalion and the 400th Military Police Battalion.〔 The brigade commands numerous smaller company sized reserve military police units throughout the country. These units deploy to foreign theaters of operations with the brigade when it is called upon, and they also deploy to various installations throughout the United States when needed for participation in training and readiness exercises.〔 抄文引用元・出典: フリー百科事典『 ウィキペディア（Wikipedia）』 ■ウィキペディアで「220th Military Police Brigade」の詳細全文を読む スポンサード リンク
