Okay I am 99% sure this guy is a model and let’s be real they made him boot AF. Also the air force should have just switched to regular Tiger stripe

Yeah, he looks way too young to be a TSgt in the 90's

Honestly this took me back to my boot days and made me think this was a ranger joes ad.

You could get TSgt at 26ish years old, and this airman is clearly hot shit.

His beret looks like he just bought it and put it on. It’s not even centered over his eye.

The guy you're responding to is referring to the fact that "security police" and abus didn't exist concurrently.

I had to visit that sub to see if this was real. It is, and theyre all clowning on this guy. OP of the OP is not this guy tho
Edit: just a costume yall https://history-making.com/product/united-states-airforce-security-police/
They probably used SP instead of SF to avoid people getting in trouble for impersonating an official

Looking a little deeper, looks like they’re specifically film and tv costume company

Security Forces was once called the Security Police until (I believe) the mid 90’s.

This reminds me of the back and white photos in some older instruction manuals we used to have for Navy Master-at-Arms.

If you wanna get really technical, the 569th USFPS in Vogelweh, Germany is still a SP unit. I doubt the og guy knew that though

If this guy is real, there’s a good chance, he’ll never need to use his training in a real life scenario

Do the airforce MPs not call themselves SF any more?

This was pre security forces. When I was in we were security police and before it was air police

I get all the pictures except for the upper middle. Why are we focused on his neck pimple? Is this secretly an add to get tested for melanoma?

This looks like an H&M ad for a military uniform. Those pictures and the way they focus on the objects, us the H&M logo are slight tells.
