The men and women of the 13th might very well be called upon to fend off anomalous threats, collect resources from debris and detritus, and study any relevant technology to strengthen their local military. Only through discipline, loyalty to the party and unity can one expect to thrive in this unforgiving sector. + + + # The Chain of Command + + Within the USSP Armed Forces, [color=gold]Commissars[/color] make up the entirety of the formal officer corps. Drawn from the Commissariat and assigned across the branches, they hold command authority while also maintaining discipline, morale, and ideological direction. + + A Commissar is expected to embody the authority and ideals of the Union, and to ensure that military force remains tied to political purpose. For a Commissar, service to the state is service to the people; they are expected to carry that pride visibly, and to serve as a sign to their comrades of what unwavering dedication to the Union can become. + + In practice, their quality as military commanders varies widely. Some are hardened leaders shaped by real service, while others are more bureaucratic than martial, spending more time behind a console than standing before an infantry formation. + + For the Remnants of the 13th, isolation and hardship have shaken the once-great pride and unity of the ranks. The few remaining Commissars stand as the last reminder of the will of the State. Left only with their original mission and silence from their distant home, they now face the labour of unifying the battalion under a common purpose once more. + + The [color=darkyellow]Serzhants[/color] Within the Naval Infantry, a Serzhant is usually among the longest-serving and most reliable comrades in a battalion, trusted not only by their superiors, but by the ranks themselves. + + Promotion to Serzhant is formally initiated by a Commissar, who selects the candidate, but it must then be confirmed through private vote within the battalion, reflecting the common belief across the Armed Forces that leadership among the ranks must be earned as well as granted. + + In practice, Serzhants serve as the bridge between Riflemen and the Commissariat: enforcing standards, carrying hard-won wisdom, and often acting as the voice of reason between the line and command. In battle, Serzhants act as squad leaders and, in the Naval Infantry especially, are often the only leadership physically present among the ranks, with the Commissariat usually commanding remotely through USSP STRATCOMM. + + Among the Remnants of the 13th especially, where losses and isolation have thinned formal leadership, the burden of their responsibility has only grown heavier. + + [color=yellow]Riflemen[/color] The USSP Naval Infantry are not just regular soldiers assigned to ships, but a distinct branch of the Union’s Armed Forces.
