Which role is primarily tasked to conduct criminal investigations involving UCMJ violations and other criminal acts not pursued by NCIS?

• A. Conducting criminal investigations involving UCMJ violations and other acts not pursued by NCIS
• B. Managing the motorcade
• C. Providing protection detail
• D. Protective surveillance

Answer: (A)

Investigative work within military law enforcement centers on uncovering and documenting offenses under the UCMJ and other crimes not handled by NCIS. This role is trained in evidence collection, witness interviews, preserving chain of custody, and coordinating with commanders and prosecutors for potential court-martial. The other options focus on protective security tasks—managing a motorcade, providing protection detail, and protective surveillance—which emphasize preventing harm and safeguarding people and assets rather than conducting investigations.
