Read that as Multi Purpose more than Military Police.
Check point can be anything from a Team, to a Squad, to a Platoon, to two platoons.
Can be a Simple Traffic Control Checkpoint. One Team. Team Hummer is camouflaged off to the side when a convoy arrives one member covered by the other two gets onto the road and directs convoys onto the appropriate routes (Main Supply Route = MSR) .
to a full blown bypass on a two way MSR like a bridge that may need two platoons to direct traffic.
