From 1968 through 1972 many of the units mentioned in this website were at one time subordinate to the 720th MP Battalion and had elements assigned to military police and security duties at Vinh Long, separately or jointly.

As a result, the Vinh Long Detachment histories of the 188th MP Company, 148th MP Platoon, and B Company, 720th MP Battalion have been combined in this detachment section.
