The provost marshal general (pronounced "provo") is a United States Army staff position that handles investigations and incarcerations of U.S. Army personnel. It is the highest-ranking provost marshal position in the U.S. Army, reporting to the Chief of Staff of the United States Army. The position brings all aspects of law enforcement in the U.S. Army in a single office.〔Taylor, Scott. ("Provost Marshal General back in the saddle again" ), ''Military Police'', April 2004. Accessed October 12, 2009. "With an office in the Pentagon (a first for the position), the Provost Marshal General now serves as the Army Staff's single source for law enforcement, providing executive oversight for planning, resourcing, policy making, and execution of full-spectrum law enforcement and security support to the Army. Functional areas include criminal investigations, police intelligence, physical security, corrections and internment, and antiterrorism."〕 The role has been off and on since 1776 (usually in periods of war time). After shutting down in 1974 at the end of the Vietnam War, it was resurrected on January 30, 2003 following the September 11 attacks. It is responsible for: *United States Army Military Police Corps (since 2003) *United States Army Criminal Investigation Command (CID) (since 2003) *United States Army Corrections Command (ACC) (since 2007) Prior to its most recent organization, the responsibilities of this position were scattered across various army units. ==History== 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「United States Army Provost Marshal General」の詳細全文を読む スポンサード リンク
