Law's original filecard mentions his Airborne qualification. The only Airborne Qualified MPs are the 16th military Brigade which is part of the XVIII Corps which is based around the 82nd Airborne Division. They get to wear the Maroon Berets so would the 16th? Oliver I know you were at Bragg so I guess you could tell us from first hand experience if you saw how they were decked out?

According to the wiki page their jump status has been terminated so I guess it would depend on what time frame you are talking about-
"The
16th Military Police Brigade
is a
Military Police
brigade
of the
United States Army
headquartered at
Fort Bragg, North Carolina
. It was the only
airborne
-qualified military police brigade in the United States Army. It provides law enforcement and police duties to the Fort Bragg area, and for the
XVIII Airborne Corps
when deployed. As an Airborne unit, it was authorized a beret flash and parachute wing trimming
[1]
, and the shoulder sleeve insignia was authorized to be worn with an Airborne tab. According to U.S. Army's Institute of Heraldry, the shoulder sleeve insignia "was amended to delete the airborne tab effective 16 October 2008" when jump status was terminated.

"
The red beret Stone is my default for that character and I use him as an Air Force
Pararescue
or PJ.
