I also think it's the RMP, but don't know for certain. I also don't know if every British Embassy gets military protection or if it's only certain ones. I can't recall ever having seen any open source information about this topic (probably for obvious reasons! ).

As Paul mentioned, there could be other military personnel; the defence attache and his / her staff is a definite, plus maybe some Signals personnel? When David Cameron was in the US the other week there was a clip on either BBC or Sky News which showed him meeting British military personnel who were permanently based in Washington DC and there seemed to be an awful lot of different Regimental headgear and cap badges on show.
