June 27, 2024 - PMG Introductory Letter.pdf
WASHINGTON — Brig. Gen. Sarah Albrycht releases her priorities for the nearly 40,000 uniformed and civilian military police (MP) professionals she leads as the 20th Provost Marshal General (PMG) in a introductory letter.
The Army's top cop assumed responsibilities June 18, prepared with a forward-focused vision to lead the Army's law enforcement and corrections division. Albrycht, who has served in the MP corps since her military commission in 1995, took the position at the Pentagon following her most-recent assignment as the U.S. Army Military Police School commandant.
The Vermont native and University of Massachusetts Amherst ROTC Minuteman Battalion graduate often banters that she was a patriot before donning the military uniform. Her priorities to the force are similar to the principals she states governed her total military career: integrity, professionalism, and "give a damn."
In an address at the University of Vermont officers' commissioning ceremony earlier this year, Albrycht said,
"Trust is the foundation of our honored profession; we must maintain it." She continued, "This all starts with uncompromising integrity and fulfilling your obligations. In difficult times, lead ethically and confidently, and use our profession and values as a compass."
Albrycht's assumption back to the Office of the Provost Marshal General—having previously served as the deputy provost marshal general—is a dual title: PMG and Commanding General of Army Corrections Command. She now serves as the principal Army staff officer for the development and execution of the Army policing functions and the principal military advisor to the Secretary of the Army and Chief of Staff of the Army on policing matters.
Albrycht succeeds as PMG following Maj. Gen. Duane Miller, who moved onto his next assignment as the deputy commanding general of Security Assistance Group-Ukraine.
