Army Trains at East Hampton Village Beach

Military police, based in Shoreham, came to train at Main Beach.

US Army military police took to an East Hampton Village beach to perform training exercises on Wednesday morning. 

Patch learned that the 423rd Military Police, based out of Shoreham, were on Main Beach to train. 

Last year, the same company caused a stir when armored vehicles were seen traveling around the North and South forks. They were also training at the time.

The unit once again brought out its 15-ton M1117 Armored Security Vehicles for Wednesday's training exercise.
