what would be cool is to have RAFP dog handlers for your guards in specific missions - say if theres an attack on a installation type mission

true, the 6 killed in 2003 was the single highest loss of life in one day ever suffered by the RMP

think the RMP that got killed had L85s. mostly thats what we are trained in unless you specialise in close protection (bodyguards).

Everyone as far as I am aware in the British Army is trained to use a L85, from cooks to engineers, so I would imagine the RMP are as well. Although in anything but war zones I would imagine they carry nothing more than a whistle, a loud voice and maybe a cane.
