A little of column A and a little of column B. Most of those I've talked with who have experienced both will tell you they are pretty equal.
The military has been training far longer than any police academy, and most police academy training (the physical and weapons training) is based on a military model though.

Of course an MP can become a civilian police officer after military service. He or she applies just as one without any police experience would apply.

They will find the training easier than a raw recruit but the training is substantianaly different than the military since it addresses civilian procedures and laws.

Honestly? It makes little difference. Military Police training might be helpful in preparing you for your BLET class or police academy, but anyone else coming out of the academy without having undergone any military training is going to be just as qualified as you are, and you'll start off as just as much of a rookie as anyone else graduating with you.
