Here are various photos of Regimental Policemen (before the formation of a separate Corps they were known as Regimental Military Policemen) from around the turn of the 20th Century, many years before your father fulfilled the same important role. In garrisons these men were often grouped to form Garrison Regimental/Military Police and their brassards would reflect that role.
