"May the force be with you…Commander Dameron."
"Commander?"
"Commander. But this time…don't blow it."
―Leia Organa and Poe Dameron prior to Dameron going to the Battle of Grail City[src]

Commander was the rank of an officer with authority over a body of troops or a military operation. In galactic history, soldiers served under commanders in various military organizations such as the Republic Military, which used Clone Commanders[16] such as Cody[17] and Jedi Commanders during the Clone Wars.[1] on the battlefield. The Confederacy military[3] had General Grievous overseeing the Separatist Droid Army as Supreme Martial Commander during the Clone Wars.[18] Similarly, the Imperial Army,[4] the Alliance to Restore the Republic,[5] the New Republic,[6] the First Order military,[8] and the Resistance all had commanders within their ranks.[7] In the case of the First Order military, Commanders also were identified by wearing teal uniforms similar to that of Majors and Colonels.[19] During the Clone Wars, Mitth'raw'nuruodo served as a Commander in the Chiss Expansionary Defense Fleet of the Chiss Ascendancy.[2]
