Hello. Thank you for your question.
Initially when you join the Army, you sign a contract for 12 years service but you can leave after 4 years. You could join the Army as Royal Military Police (RMP) to gain military experience and also gain police experience so you can do both? For more information on the role, please visit the following URL https://apply.army.mod.uk/roles/adjutant-generals-corps/royal-military-police-soldier
