	Commissar - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
		The term Commissar is also used in the fictional world of Warhammer 40,000 to represent a political field officer in the regiments of the fictitious Imperial Guard.
		Among miscreant soldiers, a Commissar's wrath is as frequent a cause of fatality as the enemy.
		An Imperial Commissar's word is immutable law and his visage is one of grim authority that is to be respected and rightly feared.

	COMMISSAR TRAINING SQUADS (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-10-31)
		It is the duty of the Commissars in the Imperial Guard to maintain the highest standards of discipline and inspire the troops by their own example.

	Russian Film Symposium 2006
		Aleksandr Askol'dov's Commissar is based on Vasilii Grossman's "In the Town of Berdichev" (1934), a story of a female commissar who gives up her baby to a Jewish family during the Polish-Soviet War in order to return to the front.
		Commissar takes advantage of the dichotomy between Jewish and Soviet ideals in order to pit the private space of the family against the public space of civic duty: Klavdiia Vavilova, the commissar of a Red Army Unit, must decide between caring for her new-born child and fighting in the Civil War.
		Commissar's legacy is strongly tied with the director's struggle to have the film released.

		Commissar Yarrick was an old man when Ork Warlord Ghazghkull Thraka attacked the world of Armageddon and the siege of Hades began.
		During the battle for Armageddon this knowledge was to prove invaluable, though it undoubtedly could have been used to better effect were it not for the stubborness and arrogance of Herman von Straab, the Lord of Armageddon.
		The old Commissar accepted nominal retirement and a training post on Armageddon where the planet's armies were being reformed.

	Comissar
		Although the film was completed in 1967, twenty years and the introduction of glasnost were needed before the film was considered "safe" for release in the USSR and elsewhere.
		One of the great showpieces of Washington's annual Filmfest DC this year, Commissar is an eloquent exploration of the conflicts between mother love and revolutionary duty; between the destruction of war and the hope of peace; and, ultimately, between the fundamental rights of the individual and those of the state.
		The story is about the fate of a woman, who being a commissar during the Civil War in Russia and fighting in the Red Army troops, gives birth to a child but later leaves him in charge of the other family and returns to the front.

	'Commissar'
		Though the story takes place in a tinker's crowded cottage in 1922, the scale is as epic as the civil war outside.
		It expands to fit the hulking heroine, Red Army Commissar Klavdia Vavilova, a shovel-jawed monster with a heart harder than permafrost and the body of a linebacker.
		There are also surreal scenes of the Holocaust, prescient dreams of the commissar, now Aunt Klavdia to the kids.

	In Search Of Utopia: The Commissar is an Equal Opportunity Critic
		With his typical, honorable self-consistency, the Commissar condemns this invocation of lynching by the left to score political points just as he did a prior summons of this horrific imagery that was utilized by the right.
		Then I find someone as honorable and self-consistent as Stephen, aka the Commissar, and it reaffirms my faith that there are more than a few out there who are not blinded to the point of insanity by their point of view.

	Hierchical position of the Commissar during training - WarSeer Forums
		Commissars are indeed recruited from the Schola Progenium, which is basically an orphanage/school for the children of Imperial servants who are unable to raise their own children (due to being dead, fighting on some far-off battlezone, working 24 hours a day, etc).
		You have the old one (Commissar training squad), the new one (Stormtrooper tours of duty) and finally the Abnett one (pupil/mentor relationship) and several of them are incompatible, in particular the old one with the Abnett one.
		And there is something people forget, Commissars are liaisons between IG officers and generals, they have to be able to interpret the orders from the HQ and get the Colonel to put them into effect if he comes from some feral world or other.

	GW Online : Warhammer 40,000 : Imperial Guard : Commissars
		Rigid adherents to the Imperial Creed, Commissars are ruthless, fearless individuals whose dedication to the service of the Emperor overrides any compassion or mercy for the men they must sometimes lead into battle.
		In such an army it is also not unusual to find other Commissars in the army as well, accompanying Infantry squads and other units into battle.
		Commissars may be included in your Imperial Guard army as an HQ choice.

		Which essentially is the argument of Commissar Crawford, who, in his other role, is supposed to be president of the Guild of Students at the Mona Campus of the University of the West Indies - a position, he has made clear, that entitles him to free tuition and lodgings at the university.
		They have not paid and have made no arrangements to pay, but Commissar Crawford insists on their right to be educated at the UWI.
		Which, sadly, is what Commissar Crawford and his comrades of the politburo have displayed.

	Commissar Frum, by Justin Raimondo
		In another life, Frum might have been a Soviet-era commissar, grimly ticking off the ideological deviations of his victims, and stonily informing them that they would soon be taking a one-way trip to Siberia.
		A more energetic enforcer of neoconservative orthodoxy could hardly be wished for: If Bill Kristol is the little Lenin of the neocons, and Norman Podhoretz their Stalin, then Frum is their Felix Dzerzhinsky, the much-feared founder of the Soviet secret police.
		Unless, of course, the conflation of ethnicity and nationhood that Lilienthal bemoaned is a device that Frum uses to smear his political enemies.

		In addition, if at any time the Trainees fail a Morale or Pinning test after the death of the Commissar, then they will be considered destroyed for the purposes of victory points- they have failed in their hardest test of all.
