| Veterans Affairs (VA) Police Mini Badge. This is the new style badge used by the Veterans Affairs Police. As the Veterans Administration was established in 1930, VA Police began as the "VA Protective Service," assigned the role of maintaining order, protecting persons and property, and providing fire safety services. As the VA evolved the fire safety role was turned over to Engineering Service and the "Protective Service" became a security guard force. In 1973, by an Act of Congress and Presidential signature the guard force was abolished and the VA Police were established.
