This 1951 US Navy training film goes over the importance and duties of the Shore Patrol. The Shore Patrol maintain good order and discipline among military personnel and apprehend all unauthorized absentees (and other offenders as necessary). They watch over sailors on shore leave and represents the commanding officers of the sailors. The film follows to Shore Patrol members through a day of patrols. Their activities include checking documentation of sailors to ensure they are allowed to be on leave, assisting civilians who have problems with sailors, keeping an eye out for deserters, and assisting civilian police if sailors are involved. The film appears to have been shot in the Washington, D.C. area and its suburbs.

I would volunteer for Shore Patrol 1st night in a new liberty port. Great way to find the best places to go.
12:36 The civilian was the late character actor John McGiver who served as an officer in the 7th Armored Div in WW2, and appeared in movies such as "The Manchurian Candidate," and "Midnight Cowboy," and quite a few television shows.
you are so correct......bravo on that call....
I remember being on Shore Patrol in Marseilles ,France in 1988. Loved that city.
Tough duty ! 😃 I’m serious, that’s a great assignment.
I was born in 1988! Are you my Dad?

I pulled Shore Patrol duty in Valletta, Malta in '69, but as a Corpsman, I never had to leave Fleet landing; I just had to patch up a few guys that had gotten into fights.
I was a British Military Policeman in Hong Kong during the early 70s. We used to carry out joint patrols with the US Navy SP’s of the bar and massage parlour district in Wanchai. We had some very interesting incidents at times. 15:41
I wouldn't want to say l was an RMP either, they're called monkeys for a reason....
I remember decades ago in San Jose seeing a Navy truck with emergency lights and the words "SHORE PATROL" on the back doors.
I remember too but I was down in Long Beach
Awesome story. Really ads to this film.
@@seymourskinner2533😂😂😂
I was in USMC 1980 to 1984 I never saw any SP's not carrying a Pistol, Cuffs , a Radio, Chemical Weapon, I was stationed Navy Base for 3 1/2 Years, we had SP's, Marine MP's and what they called " Pan Am Police" Civilian Reserve Police, that worked with the SP's, I never saw them in the Marine Area's, our biggest issue was Drunks ! Drunk Driving, People Smoking Weed, Fights. I never got in any trouble at all, ever.
I was a SP at Port Hueneme in the Seabees in the 70's. We got trained at the Ventura Sherriffs Acadamy, and also by the FBI from Los Angeles in hand to hand combat. We covered the CBC and also Pt. Mugu Naval Air Station. We had Ventura and Santa Barbara Counties. Best collar was a deserter we got that had been missing for over 15 years. Found him when his ex wife gave us a call. We showed up with Ventura Police and verified he was ours.
Interesting film, I served in the Canadian Navy in the 70s and 80’s, we didn’t do shore patrol, but we saw plenty of USN shore patrol and military police. Subic Bay in the Philippines was under marshal law when we stopped there, so as it got close to curfew the military police would be out in force. In Busan Korea we got into a bar fight with some off duty marines and the military police came in swinging there batons and hauled off the marines and left us alone, go figure
I was military police (army), an MP. It’s interesting to see about shore patrol (navy), SP.
Periscope Films has a similar 1950s film about MPs just like the SP film shown here.
I liked the SPs passing the MPs and later the Air Police, APs (Air Force) too.
Different times in the films, but the duties are relatively similar even today.
I was a known non-alcohol sailor and more then once I was volunteered for shore patrol. often It would be a party or picnic for another outfit that required an S.P so I got to enjoy those events. Another time I was on duty when we pulled into a port in the Azores. I was chosen again and got to go around the town with a local policeman. Enjoyed all of them.
Boy this brings back many memories of pulling SP back when I was in in the 80's.
One time the Shore Patrol got blown under a bridge by a wave.
I was a Marine Cpl. in 1977 and got SP duty in Naples and Rota. Yes stick Marines in cramped spaces then turn them loose with alcohol and we were given night sticks. What could possibly go wrong?
We pulled into Naples the day Italy won the World Cup (1982) and I pulled SP. It took me almost 3 days to make it back to the ship (I lost my partner somewhere on the second day).
I stood patrol many many times 1977-1987.
This was awesome!! Thanks for showing it!
i used to always volunteer for SP duty first day in a new port, you learn all the good spots that way for the next day
Those where the days
The narration sounds like Robert Montgomery...
Actor & real Lt. Commander in WW2... stared in "They Were Expendable".
I’m sure they didn’t choose the little guys to pull SP duty, as some of those sailors are big guys !
5"10" 135 Lbs of whopping fury standing SP Duty at the EM Club in Rota. And a few times taken out in town to help the regular SPs on emergency calls. Most everybody was bigger than me, but quieted down quickly when told to. It depends on how you are perceived.
I recognize John McGiver in the car crash scene. Also, I've seen the actor who played Joe Baker in some old TV shows. I don't know who he is.
I did shore patrol only one time, and it was at Pearl Harbor.
Hey is that John McGiver at 12:36? The IMdB doesn't list any appearances before 1955, but does refer to some military background. I love that guy!
Yep, it was. I looked up him up in Wikipedia, served in WW2, and more than a few big movies.
I didn't see any confirmation on IMdB or just now on Wikipedia, but as in all things I shall trust my own senses before I trust the interweb. And that face, and that voice, are very unique and unmistakable, i.e., theatrical gold. Vale John, you are missed.
Funny the LtJG looks older than a CDR. I see JG’s now and they look like school girls
Probably a mustang.
SP = babysitting drunk sailors. Trust me, I did it enough times over 20 years. Hong Kong, P.I. (Subic and Manila), Singapore, Diego Garcia, Pearl Harbor (home port), etc, etc.
Diego Garcia! What a place!
Do you remember " Hector" the hammer head shark? If I'm not mistaken, there was only one
" watering hole", on the island.
Good memories.
Shore patrol, is that still a thing?
HOW ABOUT SHORE PATROL IN SAN JUAN ON LUNA STREET IN THE 70'S..LOL
I see they weren't armed but I guess the Shore Patrol is made up of sailors unlike the Army which uses MPs. Thanks for the video.
Or, what shall we do with the drunken sailor?
Holy Loch Scotland in the Dolphin Bar Dunoon. Boomer Sub crew comes back and their Scottish girlfriends are not their girlfriends anymore.. ended up in a huge fight. Scottish police plus shore patrol broke it up..1987
does anyone remember when the usn was a force to be reckoned? them days is gone ferever.
I sure do, forty five years ago when we drank booze and smoked pot , it was a party every night, quite frankly it was the best time in my life, and I made it out alive !
God the comments on here are the most useless collection I’ve ever seen on one video
Amazingly I could care less
@@Sailor_Tom how much less could you care? So you care quite a lot now I assume.
paper... gestapo. only thing more worthless than band, drill team, honor guard. leaver it to real police
