United States Air Force Security Forces are the military police, base security and air base ground defense forces of the United States Air Force. Security Forces, or simply "SF", were formerly known as Military Police (MP), Air Police (AP), and Security Police (SP). The current AFSC's are Enlisted: 3P0X1 and Officer: 31PX. Former specialty codes included Air Police: 771XX and Security Police: 811XX. Security Forces is often referred to as one of the few "True Military Units" left in the USAF. This is due to drastically strict leadership style of the career field and the higher standards to which all SF members, otherwise known as "Defenders", are held. All SF members are held to a higher standard than all remaining Air Force personnel because of the position of authority they hold as a law enforcement capacity and their visibility within the public view.
