As they're supposed to be trained to the same standards as civvy police, one wonders how or why they fu**ed up so badly.

Er, because they have - on ocassion - the same slack standards?
Its about time Service police were disbanded and all offences were investigated by actual police.
Do you mean outside of the UK?However the Armed Forces do need their own police function when outside the jurisdiction of UK criminal law.
.
I guess that presents some logistical difficulties. If the offence takes place ashore, then it could be dealt with by the local police.Basically, yes. But there are probably quirks to that.
I believe, if anything serious happens onboard then the ships reggies/cox'n initially deal with it whilst SIB get flown out/come onboard. really serious then gets handed over to Civ Pol.I guess that presents some logistical difficulties. If the offence takes place ashore, then it could be dealt with by the local police.
If onboard the the Ship's office/Executive staff could deal with it as if they are HR. Verbal warnings, written warnings etc. If serious then..... no idea really. A bit of a quandary.
