Best Answer

The Navy equivalent of a police officer is called a "master at arms" or MAA. MAAs maintain security on naval ships and installations, and less frequently serve as a shore patrol in locations where naval personnel are stationed or have liberty (a day off from shipboard or regular duties). They also staff brigs (jails) on naval installations and on board ships. As with other military police, they do not retain their police powers when off duty.

What is the MOS for MP officer?

The 5803 MOS (Military Operating Specialty - USMC and US Army) is Military Police Officer in the Marine Corps. In the US Army the MP MOS of a regular officer is 31A, and a Warrant is 311A (CID Investigator). While in the Air Force the military police are Security Force (formerly Air Patrol and Security Patrol), the officer AFSC (Air Force Specialty Code-synonymous with MOS) is 31PX. The Navy appears to be a bit different. While I'm not able to locate a Navy Classification for officers who work law enforcement, the NEC (Navy Enlisted Classification) is 9545 Navy Law Enforcement Specialists.
